Collective Troll 4: 60s, 70s And 80s

I'm still sifting through the ginormous box of White Sox goodies from The Collective Troll. It's been a fun experience and has resurfaced many memories long forgotten, like going to old Comiskey Park with my best friend back then, Ray.

I have no clue how, but I always seemed to weasel my way into group outings to see the Sox in the eighties. I guess that everyone saw me decked out in Sox gear all the time and took pity on me. More likely, the teams were so awful that they couldn't give the extra tickets away, so they asked me to tag along.

Unlike in this decade, I can remember the Sox winning the majority of the time, when I went, having those bad teams. The past two decades, with the really good teams, my track record isn't as spectacular.

Enough chit-chat though. Let's see what treasures are in this part of the box!
