The nicest HOF'er I ever met.
... was Bobby Doerr. Bob Feller a close 2nd.
Got a ball with Teddy ballgame, Yaz and Doerr (all at the same show) they were all in sep. rooms, Doerr was alone on the lower level. When we went to get his sig. there was no line, no handler, just him sitting at table twiddling his thumbs. got to sit and chat with him for over 20 minutes! We even went and got him a soda and a piece of Pizza. I felt bad that he was being neglected, esp. considering how grumpy Yaz was that day.
Cheers to Bobby!
Leo.
