"A Tribute to Brian Cole"

As a Life Long Met Fan, Looking Back to 2001 ~ Having a Phenom come up through the Organization was & is a rarity, I was Anxiously Awaiting His Arrival into the BiGs!!!

When I 6 years young, me Ma took us to see "The Beatles" at Shea Stadium.
I didn't care about The Bugs... I just wanted to go to "Shea Stadium"... it was my 1st gig to the Home Field & I was pumped!

49 years later and I still remember the music and All those People!

Thanks Cliff fir Helping me "Open the Chest iN the Attic"
