??

Answer 1

Answer 2

I'm still waiting for mine...Cubs win the world series!

Answer 3

It was 1956, I believe, and I was working hard lowering the ceilings in my parents home shortly before leaving for my pre-induction physical.  I wasn't even a baseball fan, but it was the world's series and I was listening on the radio (before TV) and heard the Dodgers when they defeated the Yankees.  The reaction even on the radio was so great that I felt as pumped as if a war had been won.  But I don't even remember the players.  Names like Berra, Stengel, DiMaggio, Rizzuto come back, and that catcher who became paralyzed (Roy Campanella), but I wasn't really a fan and don't remember.  I've watched other series but that was the big one, the first one for me.  The nature of the news media was such then that hero worship seemed to be easier.  "Then felt I like some watcher of the skies when a new planet swims into his ken."
