Old Members - UGH

A priest, a rabbi and a horse walk into a bar...

The horse looks at his friends and asks "What are the chances????"
 
I'm so old, I still listen to the Tigers games on a pre-war (1938) RCA 5-tube...

I keep a list of the stations I can pull in on a clear night, too (because I'm old....) I didn't include the local Detroit WWJ or WJR stations.


Back in the 70's, I asked my grandpa why we didn't watch the Tigers on his little 13" B&W TV when we came over, and he said, "Baseball is better on the radio". He wasn't wrong.

Grandpas are not wrong about baseball.
That's a baseball rule.

My grandpa would go outside and listen to the Royals on 3-transistor pocket radio. It was cool to go out there with him and just hang out. My brother has that radio now. I got the Sony AC/DC shop radio. It needs restoration but I have it.
 
I had an old radio with tubes that I wanted so badly to get working again. I had the tubes lit but no sound even with its dedicated external speaker and special antenna bally hoo. I had to send it down the river 😢
