Games 6 & 7 - 75 World Series, Sox vs Reds. Game 6 was such a high, 12 innings, Fisk walk off - I still get chills! Then being out of our minds excited for game 7....and it came down to the 9th, but there was no joy in mudville! I was in college at the time and got tickets in way right grandstand from a friends father who worked for the city.

Game 6 1967 World Series. First time ever to a big league game, as well as Fenway. I was ten, so details are those of my age... Second row seats, halfway between home and first base. I do remember the American flag buntings hung over the railings so clearly. Did not see Lonborg or Gibson pitch, but Petrocelli hit two out, and Yaz hit one. And they won!
But the best part as that I was taken by my dad......

I've been to a lot of great games, including four Super Bowls,since. But none tops that one, because Dad took me....

Nice Ross! 67 World Series with your Dad!! Sweet!! My older brother took me to my early ball games at Fenway (never saw a Sox game with my Dad) but we did go to alot of Grapefruit League games in Winter Haven when I was a kid! We used to go to Fla. every Spring! Saw some great games there with my Dad! Good times!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
