During which there were people coming by for autographs and he said i acted as his agent since i was handing him the stuff to sign
Class act all the way. Wow! i still get goose bumps thinking about that day
A thrill of lifetime which one can't put words to it. Thank you Greg for picking those seats and that particular game

That's a great story.

Great thread. I think we needed this.
Sadly, I don't think I can contribute.

Here's a blurry Polaroid of my 11 year-old self and the late Dick Howser in 1973 when he was the third base coach for the Yankees.

My uncle was receiving some type of award at a contractors dinner / award ceremony at the Amber Lantern Restaurant in Queens, NY and Dick was the guest speaker.

The award ceremony was incredibly boring for an 11 year-old (and probably for most of the adults there as well), but Dick's brief but funny speech was the highlight of the night for me (and I wasn't even a Yankees fan).
