Default Would you trade in your collection to see one specific game?

June 22, 1957. Yankees v. Chisox at Yankee Stadium. Tommy Byrne came in to relieve and pitched 9 innings of 1 hit ball. In the bottom of the 13th Yogi strolled up to the plate and my father said "Yogi's hitting this one out and we can go home". Paul LaPalme threw it, Yogi hit it and we were able to go home. This 8 year old looked at his dad like he was the smartest person on earth. This nearly 59 year old would give it all to do it again.
