Anyone else making the trip out to Cooperstown? My wife is going on vacation with her family that week so my mom and I will be road tripping out for the event. It will be my first trip to Cooperstown. Any suggestions on things to check out, other than the hall, obviously?

I was going to say I have nothing. But I won't under the enforced rules.
Actually I'm not sure if I'll ever make it there. It's not on my bucket list. Hope ya have fun as I've heard it's a neat experience...just not my thing.

You should check out the Hall of Fame. I heard that was pretty cool.

Check out the baseball HOF.
I'm jelly, though. Next to Eric Davis, Larkin is easily my favorite player of all time... Well, 2nd. I may meet you there.

Met Eric Davis in AZ back in February. Hilarious guy. At one point he was in a dugout giving a talk to Miguel Cairo and a couple other guys. I stood and listened to the whole talk, probably 15 minutes, about plate approach. The best quote that I can remember:ernest_t_bass;1169892 wrote:Check out the baseball HOF.
