My Game Count

I saw my first Major League game on April 26, 1980 in Wrigley Field (Pirates 9, Cubs 2.) I've got that ticket stub, and every one since (with the exception of the three I some how lost) stored in several photo albums.

This chart tabulates my baseball attendance since 1980. I've actually seen more games than are listed here -- I went to several Denver Bears games throughout my childhood, but I can't document them.

I've also seen the Boston Red Sox play in 20 different road venues, including Shea Stadium for Game 7 of the 1986 World Series and Coors Field for Games 3 and 4 of the 2007 World Series.
