    See game 7 of the WS between the Cubs and Red Sox at Fenway.

    Watch my grandchildren play baseball at any level.
    But Im willing and hoping to wait on this one for awhile.

    Thats about it. I figure I will probaly have to live to be 150 to see the first two things. I hoping Im at least 60 before I see the other.

    A lottery win would help.

    Id like to go back in time to see baseball at the turn of the century. Id like to meet Ted Williams. The greatest hitter ever.

    Other things in the bucket:

    Retire

    Finish college

    Get son through college

    Go deep sea fishing

    Go to Duke baseball game

    Go to NC State baseball game

    Go to UNC baseball game

    Go to Durham Bulls game

    Go to Braves game(The Atlanta Braves I believe are the closest pro team right?)

    Catch a 35-50 pound catfish on the Cape Fear River.

    Catch a catfish that big ANYWHERE!

    Start an online business.

    Write for a living or as a hobby.

    Did I say win the lottery?

    Go to Cooperstown for induction weekend - preferably for Smoltz and/or Glavine

    Spend a week or two at spring training in Florida

    Spend a week in Omaha (CWS) instead of two days

    Shag balls or pitch BP with the Braves

    Spend as many days as necessary in DC to view the monuments and museums

    Visit Iwo Jima

    Visit Normandy

    Every Park in One Summer

    After I retire I'd like to make it to all 30 MLB parks in one summer. It would have to be well planned but it's achievable. Some Airplane and some (rented) RV would be optimal. Any takers?

    Let me get my glove out of the closet

    Yes count me in!!! I have been to every park at least once in the 1990's but there are at least 10-12 new stadiums since then. It is a fantastic experience and done with a group of TBR guys it would be even better. For starters maybe Braves could arrange a weekend trip for all of us at least once every summer. The TBR annual father/son, mother/son or family trip?
