I had no clue what to expect from our trip to Cooperstown, New York. Sure, I knew about the Hall of Fame and all of the history and tradition that goes along with it. I have been told, multiple times, that it is the ultimate experience for any baseball fan. But I had never been there. Well that all changed in late July, as we set off for Hall of Fame Weekend.
Roberto Alomar, Bert Blyleven, and Pat Gillick were inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame last Sunday, July 24th. WFUV's Kevin Price and Ricky Cibrano made the trip to Cooperstown to talk to legends and hear some classic baseball tales.
Saturday, July 30, 2005 - It was Hall of Fame Weekend 2005 when Hall of Famer Bob Feller visited the WFUV broadcast location in the atrium of the Hall. Greg Giombarrese and Lou Wasson hosted One on One that day and found that the man from Van Meter, Iowa was not one to mince words. If he had an opinion you heard it.
Lou Wasson gives his impression of the man and the interview
The mecca of the baseball world is in Cooperstown, New York, where only the finest of those involved in baseball can become members of the Hall of Fame. Every year, we’re privileged to do a One on One road show during Induction Weekend in this small town in upstate New York.
