Ever see this?

 

I just found out about it on Charlie Sheen's Netflix special

 

 

I had only learned about it recently from the Charlie Sheen doc as well. I was surprised I had never seen anything about that before though

I got to see it live. Some of the neighborhood mothers went and took us kids. First there was Rocketship 7 on the right side of the studio, and then Dialing for Dollars on the left. It looked so much smaller in person. We sat in bleachers, and I spilled my orange soda on my pants. 😩

The first view of the field when you go to a game.

 

I grew up going to baseball games at Shea Stadium. As a kid walking from the outer concourse into the stadium and seeing the field for the first time was always kind of magical.  Even into my 20's  when my friends and I were getting in line for that first Harry M Stevens Bigger Beer I had to walk out to see the field before I got on the concession line.

 

Good times.

The first Bills game I went to was free. I was in my early teens and my friends grandfather ran one of the concessions. He got me to go with them to help out. We got there early, just his grandfather me and my friend. We went to the on-sight commissary to pick up some extra supplies, then walked to the concession stand. I was carrying bags of hot dog rolls and as we were walking through the concourse, I just had to run down one of the tunnels and look at the field. I was getting yelled at but just stood there. What a feeling. Years later I still got that same feeling.
