TRS 86's Story

I have a very unusual path to becoming a Met’s fan.  As my name suggest, I started as a fan in 1986 at age 10.  My parents were not really into sports but allowed me to watch a baseball game on TV one night.  What game was that?  Final game of the Met’s Astro’s series.  From that point on I was hooked.  Sounds normal, so where does it go off?  This occurred in a small town in SOUTHWESTERN VA.  Yes right in the middle of ACC basketball country and Atlanta Braves baseball territory.  After a couple of good years the Mets were off to my teen age years of being absolutely terrible AND dominated by the Braves.  Nice for me huh?  Today I live in NC and continue to spend almost every day talking Met’s, so I guess I am still hooked.
