2013 in st. Louis. Sat behind the right field foul pole with a drunk red Sox fan wearing those fake beards behind me. Went with 6 others and saw Ortiz win the game for Boston. Drove 350 miles there and back after game then went to work that day. $250 per ticket purchased in a hotel lobby, that was interesting, hoping we didn't get scammed out of $1750

David-- this was the only one I missed. Was on a repositioning cruise from Montreal to Miami. Unfortunately we docked in Boston the morning after Boston clinched. Folks there were exuberant but gracious victors

Default 1995 - Game 6

October 28, 1995

Tom Glavine twirls 8 masterful innings of one hit ball against the Tribe. Dave Justice hits a homer off of Atlanta native Jim Poole and the Braves win 1-0 for their only championship during the great run in the 90's.

I have a ticket for games 3, 4 and 5 at Wrigley this weekend. I was at the pennant clinching game, an awesome experience to witness baseball history. Hopefully more will be made.

I went to the 5th game of the 1964 Series between the Yankees and the Cardinals. I was 13 years old. I got to see Bob Gibson pitch, but the Yankees lost when Tim McCarver hit a 3-run homer in the 10th inning.

My uncle was supposed to take his son, who was 8, but at literally the 11th hour his boss called him to attend an important meeting in his stead. My uncle drove my cousin and I in to Yankee Stadium. He made sure we got in. We sat all by ourselves. My uncle picked us up after the meeting.

Those were different times. I'm not sure most parents these days would let a 13-year-old and an 8-year-old go to Yankee Stadium on their own!

Lucky enough to go to five home games total during the Giants' three recent WS appearances, 2010, 2012, 2014. All games were an absolute blast, 4 wins, 1 loss (only one not wearing my lucky shirt).

Game 4, 2014 also gave me the "rally rope". Giants were down 4-1, in danger of going down 3-1 in the series. My buddy (left) and I had imbibed a few by this point and decided we needed to do something to spark the team. I spotted a Red Rope on the ground, and we each took a big bite. From that point, the Giants rallied for 10 unanswered, winning 11-4 and eventually taking it in 7. We like to think we had a hand in that.
