It was an amazing time - man walks on the Moon, and the Mets win the World Series! I was 9 years old, when to my first games that season, and followed the team to the championship. No matter what happened since, or will happen in the future, I'll always be a Met fan.

I always say - I may get older, but I refuse to grow up!
