We Made It!! 

Happy Opening Day!!

“You always get a special kick on Opening Day, no matter how many you go through. You look forward to it like a birthday party when you’re a kid.” –Joe DiMaggio

For old-time baseball fans like us, if there’s a better day of the year than Opening Day, I’m not sure what it is!

In the featured photo above, we see a scene from Opening Day, 1946, at Wrigley Field

Check out the photo montage I’m calling “Memorable Opening Day Festivities!” It features scenes from various Opening Days over the decades. I think you’ll enjoy it!

Just to put you in the right frame of mind on this wonderful day, here’s a few words about Opening Day I found on Wikipedia. I think we can all agree with the sentiment:

“For baseball fans, Opening Day serves as a symbol of rebirth. Writer Thomas Boswell once penned a book titled, “Why Time Begins on Opening Day.” Many feel that the occasion represents a newness or a chance to forget last season, in that all 30 of the major league clubs and their millions of fans begin with 0–0 records.”

Let’s get it on! Good Luck to all baseball fans! Let’s hope your favorite team does better than expected!
