Random post. Like 20 years ago I used to deliver pizzas late at night and listen to whatever crazy games I could find.
I can get that Chicago station in Eastern Connecticut on my way home from work. Always talking Bears every day.

I shared a room with my older brother until June 1954 when he graduated from high school and left for Paris island and the USMC the following week.
I not only inherited a room of my own but control of my brothers little radio.
I listened to the great Mel Allen and Yankee games as always as my brother made me into a Yankee fan as my uncle next door had made him one . Even 2500 miles away only the destruction of the Old Yankee stadium made me homesick.
It was like a huge part of my life was erased.
But baseball was the beginning and the end for my brother. Where he would listen to the normal radio show of the day . I was a sports junkie.
After baseball season I would listen to the radio as I pretended to do my homework.
I discovered the Montreal Canadian games ( in French ) the names were intriguing as they rolled off the tongue of the excited announcer.
That winter I also discover UConn basketball and my life has never been the same.
I guess that will be 60 year next BB stadium. That winter I also discovered WINS and Alan Freed but that's another story.
