St. Jude Church/School Nostalgia

Those two summers, I was a bleacher creature more than a few times, and I can testify that there was some of that there evil marijahoochie shit being indulged in up in that there upper deck. Some guy fired one up down the row from us, and one of Detroit's Finest came up and grabbed his baggie of 'stuff'. The cop held it up over his head and emptied it onto the cement and then danced on it to grind it into unusability, to the cheers and moans of the crowd. It was hilarious. He didn't arrest the guy, just took a bow after his dance was over and then walked away.

I used to hear rumors that hooligans would sometimes try to smoke that eveil weed marijuana up in the bleachers during some of those games too.

Horrors! Shame on them. How could anyone do that?

[jcole]

Welcome home, EB. How was the trip? Pics?

A couple of shots of the gang on October 1, 1999, the second from last game at Michigan and Trumbull. What a night for a ballgame. I will remember that for a long time. They lost as I recall to the Royals, 9-5. Too bad , was hoping for a win.
We even got to see the last Friday fireworks show.

Those have got to be your kids in the first pic, Mkap. If you hadn't said it was '99, I would have thought the boy was you.

[Mkap]

JC - I guess I can't blame it on the milkman.

[Campfire Girl]

WOW - no kidding - there's no doubt who those kids belong to!

[Campfire Girl]

Welcome home EB - and I echo the thought - PICS?

Here's a couple of tickets that have some significant history. One was the Tigers first inter-league game in Montreal and it's in French. Second was their first inter-league game at home against the Marlins

Can't believe they have been playing interlegue for a dozen years already.
Who was the coach of that 97 Marlins team? Leyland maybe?

Yes. It was. I win again. I might be tied with J, now. I'd be ahead if I wasn't disqualified so often on technicalities.
