You know, in doing this, even in my fantasy I never imagined Dave 1-2’ing Banner Day with uniforms. That always seemed like it will be two events. So while VB Day is the lead story, let’s not lose sight of the return of Banner Day.
I saw this photo yesterday on Facebook and I asked Coop from KinersKorner.com and a Gal For All Seasons if she would let me share it over here.
This was taken on Sat July 16 in the CitiField Parking Lot (by the “Shea bases”) in honor of Dana Brand, who passed away earlier this year. If you are unfamiliar with Dana please take the time to research him.
A tip of the cap to Dana. Whoever has control of his 50th Anniversary Conference at Hoftsra please let me know how I can help keep Dana’s dream alive.
seconded on the 50th thing.
Thanks for sharing Shannon – for those interested, I believe Greg Prince from FAFIF is going to be one of the poobahs for the conference. I’ve already asked what I can do to help – perhaps all of us bloggers should!
Oh good, I’ll bug Prince!
Poobah’s a strong word, but I have been working with them informally. Will get around to posting something substantive on FAFIF in short order. In the meantime, please feel free to e-mail me with your ideas/questions (that’s for all Mets fans who are interested).
Count me in too. I had offered Dana a bunch of my memorabilia to display if he wanted – Shea seats, ramp signs, etc.
does anyone know who has “control” now?
Hey! I made that sign in the background for Dana! I know he is in heaven looking down and smiling.
Cool Andre…glad you saw the post!
