Having grown up in the DC area, I went to the 1962 All-Star game and I still have the program. When a game participant is signing in the area I usually buy a ticket to get them to sign the program. A year or so ago Ernie Banks was signing so I purchased a ticket. We chatted a bit and I finally said, "Ernie, before we part company I have to hear you say, Let's play two.'" He asks, "Do you want me to write it?" I tell him that that would be great. So he signs my program on his picture - "Let's play two! Ernie Banks"



I walked away feeling like a 10-year old kid.
