Default The day the game was cancelled

Just thought I'd show these today.
That morning I was sittting in my office with a view of the WTC looking South. I couldn't wait for my day to end, I had tickets to see the Yankees vs Chicago White Soxs at the old Yankee Stadium. I had shut my blinds due to the bright sunlight comming in that morning. A co-worker came in and asked me to open my blinds, he heard that the WTC was hit by a plane. I saw a cloud of smoke from one of the towers, we turned on the radio and then tried to call our colleagues located at 90 Church, across from the WTC. I could not get through. Co-workers gathered to watch from my window and then the second tower got hit. We were in shock.....the first building collapsed.....we evacuated. The city was locked down....I kept my tickets.
