Default disappointing moment

Posted By: barry arnold

Hank Aaron's career homerun record,beating the Babe, meant the most to me.
I taught Aaron's daughter and received a signed photograph of the momentous
event and an autographed baseball. Still means a lot to me.

Not in the same league as any of the other things noted by the board, but
still momentous for me in a nostalgic sort of way, was listening to Dizzy
Dean singing Wabash Cannonball as he tried desperately(fighting an inexorable drunkenness) to talk about
Falstaff beer and PeeWee.


best
