OT: Jean Shepherd Video On Memories Of Comiskey Park
 

Just terrific stuff. I was looking for his radio broadcast that eventually became the movie Christmas Story and stumbled upon this. Shepherd had such a terrific way of weaving a story, and this one involves Comiskey Park, the hated New York Yankees, and his old man.

Hope you enjoy.

The first book appearance of the Christmas Story is in his book entitled In God We Trust.

In God We Trust....All Others Pay Cash.

The man could tell a story.
