Baseball Bucket List
I don't know that this blogger has the right idea about what a bucket list is. There should be some level of certainty and planning possible. Being at a ballpark to witness an? inside-the-parker is a freak occurrence (though, I'll raise those stakes by saying I watched an inside-the-parker walk-off in extra innings... thank you Marquis Grissom!). And easily my most memorable moment is when (deaf) Curtis Pride got his first MLB hit, and as he's standing on second base, we banged and stomped as loud as we could, on the idea that we could somehow make him hear. He said that he felt the vibrations of the stadium beneath his feet. Still, not bucket list.
Anyway, baseball bucket list? I don't really have a desire to go to every single ballpark, nor to meet any players. I was at the Cup-clinching game in Montreal 1993. So, maybe go to a Game 7? But, the reason that 1993 Cup game was memorable was because we won, and I don't know that I'd want on my bucket list to attend a game on the chance they'd win the Cup, only to not win. Again, I don't think that's bucket list material.
What do you got?
