A Phillies fan since 1960, I've seen the Phillies win at Connie Mack Stadium, the Vet, and Citizens Bank Park. I survived 1964, and rejoiced in 1980 and 2008. Came to Wilmington, DE as a young child when my dad started at the Philadelphia Bulletin. He took the train every day. Today I live in Sunbury, PA, about three hours from Philly. I still manage to get down for a few games, and have also seen the Phillies in Washington, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh. There've been a lot of ups and too many downs. Like Jerry Seinfeld says, "Eventually you realize you're just rooting for laundry." As long as that laundry has red pinstripes and says Phillies across the chest, I'll keep rooting.
