***One of my closest friends does the video for the Classic and he told me the family asked to change it up a bit...from a Memorial to a Rememberance***



Are they still using the Diamond Rio song or changing to a more upbeat song? That shite makes my eyes water every year


I know they have been real protective over the video but I think it would be great to release the old one if they are not going to use it any more.

I remember watching LSU play VCU in a regional at the old box, and we had low level bleacher seats right by 3rd base.

The story was that day that Wally missed pregame batting practice because he had a final exam...so a lot of the guys in the bleachers behind us were asking "Hey Wally, how'd you do on that exam?" in between pitches, he looked over and gave our section a thumbs up.

After the game, he came over and talked to us, and signed a ball for one of the guys kids. The signature read "89 B+...Wally Pontiff #31"
