Legendary Tennis!
I'm inserting some photos from the match . . .
. . . including one showing the routine McEnroe hands-on-hips slouch, indicating that a "You cannot be serious!" tirade is about to erupt:
The best part, though, involved several tennis balls that Borg and McEnroe hit into the crowd before the match started. Both players had autographed these balls earlier. Borg hit one into the section where Doris and I were sitting, and the ball sailed over my head.style=""> Over the years I've watched many fans at baseball games bobble homerun balls hit into the stands, so I turned around and patiently waited while the ball bounced off the fingers of numerous people in the rows above us. The ball eventually worked its way down and ended up in mid-air right in front of me, and while holding my camera in my right hand, I simply reached out and grabbed the ball with my left!
Being a sentimental guy, I checked e-Bay listings the next day to see what a tennis ball autographed by these two tennis greats would fetch at auction. I figured maybe this could be the start of our new retirement savings. Sadly, it looks like I could sell the famous ball for an amount roughly equivalent to what I paid for the exhibition match tickets.
