When Elvis died

Thurman Munson.

That was a real crusher.

I hit my knees and sobbed right there in front of the TV, and I'm not even a Yankees fan.

That guy was just the real deal as a ballplayer and a leader by example.

 

Unfortunately, I was not born when Elvis died, but with all the coverage, it seems like I was (maybe for other SJ posters, they feel the same)

 

haha i am the same way

 

Canuck, I don't think we are in the minority here. We won't be the only ones feeling this way ;D

 

I had just turned 9, was watching The Brady Bunch when the news broke in.

He had played in my hometown two months earlier.
