For instance when JFK was assassinated my Mom was watching TV and she started crying. As a kid that really freaked me out. I'll never forget that. Anyway ... thanks for the additional bat day dates!

I was 8 years old at the time, all I remember about RFK was the train trip from NYC to DC and how so many people lined the tracks to say goodbye.....
These are bats from Yankees Bat Days...most are the ones I got and I picked up a few at flea markets...
