it's cool that you can send in your story and possibly have it added to the DVD when it comes out...

It was baseball, so it's a safe bet that some 'roid monkey swung a stick at a ball while a bunch of other 'roid monkeys stood around, scratching their nuts.

Drinking beer......just don't ask me where, cause I do not remember where I was after all these years. Probably at Seagle's.... then again depending on what day it was I might have been getting ready to go to work since I worked the mid shift then.

I remember precisley. I was 12 years old sitting on my grandmothers plastic covered sofa in Lawrence MA watching the game and my old man curse out Calvin Shiraldi and Bob Stanley. That was the night I added a few choice words to my vocabulary thanks to pops :-?

From IMDB.com:
Plot Outline: Combining real and fictional events, Game 6 centers around the historic 1986 World Series and a day in the life of a playwright who skips opening night to watch the momentous game.

I've often felt bad for Buckner...he'd been my favorite Cub for many years and had been a good player...but that one error.... :-? :-?

Buckner never should have been in the game at that point. The guy could hardly move, they should have replaced him in the late innings with a better defensive player.
