I have lived in St. Louis my entire life, and the affection this city has had for Stan Musial even 50 years after his last game is just amazing. I had the pleasure of meeting him twice in my life. He was so genuine and so friendly, just a joy to be around. I was lucky enough to have him autograph the scorecards from his five homer doubleheader. After signing, he looked at the box scores, smiled broadly, and with that infectious laugh said "I could have had six!" It's pretty special when your boyhood idol turns out to be even more impressive off the field than he was as a player. The Man.
