Doesn't have to be in person or anything. Just what sticks out in your mind.
I'm stuck on a few.
1) Exchanging letters/phone calls with my grandfather about the Red Sox and the guy in the minors, Nomar Garciaparra. To date, my favorite player ever because of those letters/phone calls.
2) Attending Y-D Red Sox games with my brother and grandfather during the 1-2 weeks we would spend in Cape Cod with my grandparents.
3) In little league, the one game each year that my grandfather attended. Was always my best game each year.
You'll see a theme here, my grandfather. Even though he passed 16 years ago, I think about him each and every day. He was a big part as to why I joined the Army 6 years after he passed and his view on life overall has remained with me and grown stronger. Baseball and the Red Sox especially were a bond between us. Screw the Sox-Yankees rivalry. It's meaningless. The Red Sox, to me, are a bond with my grandfather that will never be broken or forgotten.
