This place exists. It is located in the entrance of the HOF and it's named in Buck's honor. I'm in the camp that believes he should have been inducted based on his total contribution, but, in my mind, having an award named in his honor is a greater celebration of his life and accomplishments. That's probably the best righting of a wrong (in my opinion) as one could hope to receive.

BTW, congrats to the family of Ron Santo!
