Default First game

My first game was August 7, 1971 at Three Rivers Stadium. My Aunt took me and my older cousin. The Pirates were playing the Phillies, and before the game, they had a "Reunion" game to celebrate the 1960 World Series. The "old" Pirates won the Reunion game, but the "current" Buccos lost 5-3.
I still have the yearbook, and the special program for the Reunion game, with photos of all the participants in 1960.
I also bought a Willie Stargell poster that day, which is long gone.
Great topic !
