The Yankees had s fellow at the game today who turned 112 today. He talked about seeing games at hilltop park, seeing/meeting Bab Ruth before his Red Sox days. Could you imagine living that long. Growing up there was no cars, planes, cellphones, Internet and than all the technology of today.

He said he only smoked Drums... threw all the cards away though.

My grandfather was born in 1887 and began smoking at the age of 10. If you're doing the math you'd see that he could have collected some pretty neat stuff had he been so inclined. He wasn't! I was the first and only collector in the family. :(

My wife's Great Grandma turned 110 yrs old today here in Tennessee. (Oldest living Tennessean of record) She dipped snuff for some 8 or 9 decades. She still loves to play dominos - Sweet lady... (Senator Beavers (on right) was by the house today to honor her)

Brock, great post. Imagine meeting a young Babe Ruth and having that memory now 100 years old. Incredible.
