TONIGHT, FAMILY AND FRIENDS ATTENDED THE 3RD PLAYOFF GAME FEATURING THE YORK REVOLUTION AND THE SUGAR LAND SKEETERS! A SELL OUT WAS ON HAND TO SEE THIS PLAYOFF GAME ON A GORGEOUS EVENING FOR BASEBALL. AS A SIDE NOTE, THE TICKETS WE RECEIVED WERE "FREE" AND THE TEAM WAS TRYING TO SET A PLAYOFF RECORD FOR ATTENDANCE! THIS WAS A 1ST FOR ME REGARDING PLAYOFFS AND FREE TICKETS! I KNEW SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO RECEIVED "FREE TICKETS"! I PLANNED ON NOT GETTING ANY AUTOGRAPHS OR PICTURES, AN OFF NIGHT FOR ME! HOWEVER, THAT CHANGED WHEN I RAN INTO CIVIC LEADER VONI B. GRIMES. HE WAS SELLING HIS MEMOIR AND SIGNING COPIES! I WAS ABLE TO GRAB AN AUTOGRAPH AND PHOTO! HE PENNED BRIDGING TROUBLED WATERS! IN ADDITION TO HIM BEING AN AUTHOR, A GYM IS NAMED AFTER HIM IN YORK, PA! THE 93 YEAR OLD SERVED IN WORLD WAR II! AS VONI SAID, " IT IS BETTER TO HAVE AN EDUCATION AND NOT NEED IT, THAN IT IS TO NEED AN EDUCATION AND NOT HAVE IT"!
ABOVE IS AN UNSIGNED PLAYOFF PROGRAM FROM TONIGHT'S GAME!
