Pete Z.When I was 8 we were visiting some friends of the family and I had a really bad cold. I made it a habit to ask if they had any baseball cards and the mom said there were some in the basement and I could pick out a few that I wanted. Well there I was picking through a box of cards, barely able to see straight with the fever, yet I managed to pick out, among others, a '63 Musial and a '56 Crazylegs Hirsh. I remember thinking how cool the cards were the next day thumbing through them, but I've forever wished that I hadn't been sick.
