Games 1 and 2 of the 83 series in Baltimore. (Also games 1 and 2 of the ALCS.) Game 2 was the only game I've attended with my Mom. It turns out that she and Dad use to go to games at Griffith Stadium from time to time, but once we kids came along it would be just Dad and me.
Them was the days when actual fans could buy tickets--none of this season ticketholders-only jazz. I camped out in line the night before to buy tickets when they went on sale. Got 4 for each game, but then the Os won on the road so no game 6 or 7. I didn't have to camp out for the ALCS; game 2 wasn't sold out and I couldn't sell an extra ticket outside the stadium on game day for even face value.
