2007 Hall Of Fame Induction Weekend |
|
My wife and I took our son Alex to his second annual Cooperstown Hall Of Fame Induction Weekend Trip.
There were an estimated 70,000 fans in attendance for the 2007 Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony for Cal Ripken
and Tony Gwynn, which was held in Cooperstown on July 29, 2007. With a total of 53 Hall Of Famers in attendance, there was no shortage of signers up and down Main Street. This is the first year that I've attended Induction Weekend where they blocked traffic on Main Street so pedestrians could walk on the streets. I thought it would be hard to top our trip last year when we met Yogi Berra and got published in the Hall Of Fame magazine Memories and Dreams, but somehow we managed. This year's In-Person autographs included Dave Winfield (Inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2001) and Harmon Killebrew (Inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1984). The coolest part of our trip is taking a picture of Harmon Killebrew holding Alex in his lap! This is one of those moments we'll always remember!
