For me, it would be my ticket to Nolan Ryan's seventh no-hitter on May 1st 1991.

Unfortunately, my original post I typed got killed by a sytem glitch, and I can't retype it. When I clicked on Submit Reply, I got a message that I couldn't post a reply since I wasn't logged in, which was BS, as I was logged in. When I tried to go back to what I had typed, the system had deleted it.

All I can say is that if you type a long post (one you don't want to have to retype), you should probably highlight and copy it before hitting reply. That way if the system goes wonky on you, all you have to do is go back to the reply screen and paste it back in.

I've gotten into the habit of typing longer posts on notepad, then copying and pasting. I've experienced what you describe too many times, Steve.

Tearing up a piece of red grass from the 49er emblem at Candlestick Park after the epic 1981 NFC Championship against Dallas. A true piece of NFL history. Priceless!

Going to Miami Baseball Stadium in the late 1970's and seeing the Pitt Pirates play the Baltimore Orioles, spring training.
No major league team in Florida at that time, and no money to go anywhere else.
Went with my late Grandfather Florentino and my father and brother.
I treasure this because it was with those I can never forget.

Visiting Forbes Field late one night during demolition and removing several bricks from the left field wall.

In the 1972-73 NCAA basketball season, my neighbor gave my father and I his Bradley basketball season tickets, and we went to the game.

I remember the old Robertson Memorial Fieldhouse, and the opponent was Memphis State, who of course would go on to lose to UCLA in the championship game that year.

I kept the ticket stub and a program for years but they are now lost. I remember being in awe of how tall Larry Kenon was, and then following his NBA career with the Spurs as I could pick up late at night an AM station out of Texas that carried Spurs games.

I was probably the only Spurs fan in Central Illinois.
