Reds:  Vada Pinson

I was probably in 6th grade and my parents took me shopping in downtown Cleveland clothing stores. I was looking at some shoes and I looked to my right and saw a man picking up leather shoes. It was Vada Pinson.  I was so excited to be just next to him.  I told my parents. They had no idea who I was talking about. He impressed me as a real Mr. Cool.

Credit where credit is due. You not only gave your five favorites in a particular sport instead of your five favorites on your favorite team(s), but actually gave only four instead of five. Takes skill to botch things up that badly!
