1993, Phillies vs. Blue Jays. I was at Game 4 at the Vet - the one that ended up being the highest scoring game in World Series history (15-14), thanks to "Wild Thing" Mitch Williams completely blowing it for the Phils in the 8th.
The tv room in my dorm was packed (or so I heard), watching the game on the big screen. Every time John Kruk would step up to the plate, everyone would quiet down until they heard my blow my airhorn - my signal saying hello to everyone. Then they would go nuts.
Of course, stupid Kruk ended up going 0 for 5. Maybe I should have picked someone else for my signal - like good ol juiced up Lenny Dykstra, who had 2 homers, a double and even stole a base.
Despite the Phils losing, it was still an awesome game, and one that I will remember forever.
