Never met Yogi Berra. My only dealing with him was in the mid-1980s. I sent
him an autograph request through the mail. As I recall, within a week I got my card back signed as requested. RIP Yogi. ErikV |

A Yogi interviewer mentioned that because he grew up in St. Louis and then lived in New Jersey since joining the Yankees - when you die where do you want to be buried? Yogi said: "Surprise me!"

RIP. One of the all-time greats.
Unfortunately, I never saw Yogi play, although I did see him at an autograph show at Expo Center near Dulles Airport. Larsen was at same show. Heaven for this Yankee fan. My dad saw Yogi play in 1943 for the Norfolk Tars before Yogi (and my dad) entered the service. My dad said Yogi lacked defensive skills that he later picked up from Bill Dickey. |

I live near Yogi Berra Stadium in Montclair, N.J. & met Yogi several times over the years. He signed many pictures & baseball cards for me. He was gracious & a class act. All sports fans in America whether you were a Yankee fan or not loved Yogi. He will be missed by all.
