The Minnesota Twins and the World Series

We had great fun experiencing the Minnesota Twins winning both the 1987 and 1991 World Series. We had World Series parties for many of the games, complete with all our Homer Hankies and memorabilia displayed. The crowning glory - when Steve's brother-in-law gave him tickets to game 7 of the 1991 series against the Atlanta Braves (on his birthday!) He and brother-in-law Kerry sat down low on the first baseline, just down from Ted Turner and Jane Fonda. How often can you see your team, at home, on your birthday, Game 7 and they win! To top it off, a few months later, we saw a fisheye lens shot of the stadium from that game, and found the two guys in the photo. We of course acquired the print.
