Heading Home


Sitting in the parking lot waiting to hit the road, father and son weren’t so much disappointed as wired from a day unlike any other, one where they had their names in the paper, on AOL and the TV, and had served eyewitness to a classic battle between two great rivals. Despite the misfortune of Boston’s ill-fated team, these two men shared something so many others should be fortunate enough to have: a day in the sun, at the ballpark, together.

After such a long and exciting day, Kevin asked his dad, “You’ll sleep good tonight, huh?” Bill thought for a moment. “Nah, I’ll be hearin’ RAAAH-GAAAH, RAAAH-GAAAH.”
