Posted by Gary Herman In his "spare" time, he's busy attending Sporting Events every day and/or every night with every few nights of "rest". 2002 was another record breaking year for him. He witnessed a mere 422 Professional Sporting Events as well 5 College Sporting Events which he classifies as "Amateur". As for myself, I'm Gary Herman, I was recently working in Advertising during the day until I was Laid Off on November 12th. I'm the Master Planner who also while holding down a Full Time Job was able to see 345 Total Sporting Events, majority Professional, since unlike the "King" I count everything together. By Master Planner I mean that, you guys aren't the Only ones to see all Venues in all 4 Major Sports because on December 22, 2002 in Foxboro we thought we may have held a unique distinction when we accomplished a similar feat. That included a visit to Memorial Stadium in Champaign, Illnois on December 15th as well as the Edward Jones Dome for a 2nd time that night. You guys were in Motown finishing your journey. I arrange our logistics and everything seems to work to perfection. It's been an amazing ride. Even since 9/11, we haven't missed a beat and seems we're getting beter and better. Like Mick Jagger says, "Don't Stop" I guess that describes all 4 of us. We've been traveling together since 1988. We've been all over North America as well as Japan for the Mets and the Cubs. Wrigley Field it wasn't but to see another Country was an incredible experience. In addition, Monterrey, Mexico and San Juan, Puerto Rico to open the season as well. Even found time to take a week vacation to Alaska, our 49th State and 8 days to Hawaii, our 50th State and we saw the Pro Bowl last February. By my Standards, I have visited 190 Major League Venues as well as around 100 Minor League Ballparks and Arenas which includes College as well. The "King" has even more Minor League Parks But Not too many more than me. He's 50, and I'll be 35 in March. The only thing that can stop him is Death as he says. I'm Not trying to put your accomplishments down But let's face it, the King and I belong in the Front Seats Not the Back. Come to NYC, I would like to meet you guys someday. I hope I didn't offend you guys in any way. Yours Truly, Gary Herman (Another Legend)

I'm impressed with your website. I wish I had the time to design one for my friend and I.
As for the Journey, it's impressive to a point because my friend Michael "King Cougar" Casiano, fellow postal worker, works in Grand Central Station in NYC Midnight to 8:30AM as a Mail Handler.
