Mr. Mantle


Happy Birthday to Mickey Mantle - he would have been 77 years old today,,,, Seems like an appropriate Birthday for number "7"..... I certainly remember - as a child - going to the stadium with my family,, my Aunt Kathy would get tickets , she worked for a rich guy in Westchester,, and he could get seats,,,, anyway,,, It was nearing the end of the Mick's career,,, so you would always wonder of he would be in the line up.... and if your seat was behind one of those old steel girders that held up the roof ............. Those were simpler days that I remember fondly, but can never go back to,.,,
