The Baseball Stadium Connoisseur©

To me baseball has been a passion ever since I saw my first game at age 7, at Yankee Stadium  (It's still hard for me to accept that). At age 8, I saw my first game at Shea Stadium and have been a New York Mets fan ever since. Although my loyalties are pledged to the Mets, I am, in general, a big fan of the great game of baseball. 

You might wonder what "Baseball Stadium Connoisseur" is all about. Well, my wife, Cathy, and I were attending the 1st Mets game (an exhibition game against the Boston Red Sox) at Citi Field in 2009 and I was interviewed by a reporter from Major League Baseball. Although my words were mangled a little, the reporter tagged me with the monnicker by referring to me as "... baseball stadium connoiseur Roger Ratzenberger...". One look at that and my friend, Dave Wanta, shortened it to the "BS Connoisseur" and it stuck. Therefore, I felt that this would be a good name for my Blog as well.
