I grew up in Cincinnati in a suburb on the north called Wyoming. I remember going to a game at Crosley field which they tore up when they built the sterile Rivefront stadium. Riverfront was much harder to get close to the players, but I managed to and got JB's autograph. Except for John Glenn, he is the only person I have seeked an autograph from.

I was at the game when they did This Is Your Life show for Johnny Bench (remember the show?). They did it right after the game and I almost missed it. I also got to see Tom Seaver's first (Only?) no-hitter when he played for the Reds. I also remember when George Foster (hit 52 dingers that year) hit a screecher that went into the upper deck and still seemed to be climbing. Man he had some power!

Shasta, where did you grow up? I'm guessing around Columbus with the split allegience.
