When I saw your link to your column about the worst team in college basketball, I assumed it was going to be about Penn State during one of their regular (and lengthy) troughs over the decades. Nope - thank you, Towson! 😁
I saw the Amazin Mets play several times. There was a promotion at a local supermarket where you could buy a ticket for a game for less than parking. But we got to see aging stars like Duke Snyder and Richie Ashburn. Then there were characters like Casey Stengel who had his own language and of course Marvelous Marv. Reading about them in the Daily News was a blast.

If you haven’t read Breslin’s book, it’s great.
