Meeting Ted Williams
Ernie is the one who introduced me to Ted Williams down in Winter Haven, when the Tigers were there to play the Red Sox in an exhibition game. Walking over to the minor league complex and hearing Williams barking out things at the players... well, by the time Ernie and I walked up, I was more nervous about that meeting then my own wedding. But, thanks to Ernie breaking the ice, the short meeting went well and I had another item crossed off my bucket list.
