I think mine involved Strawberry hitting a GW HR. I kind of did a Jack Brickhouse-influenced thing.
A fringe benefit was being allowed to mingle down on the field and in the dugout before the game. I recall Brett Butler being especially nice. A fun night, obviously.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That's awesome. Was that during Think Blue Week?
My dad has always wanted to try to get into their deal with the umpires that is similar. We had an old family friend who was a season ticket holder, and he wrote a long, sob & pity story about him being on death's door. Needless to say, the healthy bastard through out the first pitch at a game during all their fan festivities.
