Johnny's show was out there, man, and it was down home too...even my Dad liked this band and wonder who was this Rick Clapton guy.....

And the Duke

And the Duke

~ Thanks to my Dad who played in the old PONY League, I met Mr. Snider a couple of times. Then when he became one of the broadcasters for the Montreal Expos, all three generations got to meet him. He was a "class" act as they say. A true humble ambassador of the game. Take another base Duke!
