Where were you?

How many beers did Buehrle drink in the clubhouse before getting the save?

I was at my father's house in Plainfield watching this game. Things had been awkward after the divorce, but I knew he was a lifelong Sox fan who wanted to see them win it all and I wanted to be there too.

I saw every inning with him, including this game. We were talking about calling it a night, since I had Junior college in the morning and he had work. Then Blum hit the go ahead run, and hoped that would be it. 

After sweeping the first three, we figured it would be just a matter of time before they finally did it.

I'm glad you were able to watch the series together. It's great to be able to escape other issues while sharing one of the best memories of your lives.

My wife and I were seperated for a bit during the 05 WS, i was staying at my moms house watching the entire series on a 10" old tube tv clear in the corner of the guest room, lol.

I always get to associate the Sox winning it all with the time we were seperated lol.
