Has anyone seen it? Its always hosted by Mike Wallace (of cbs-2) its always
general information channel usually about the public schools, police dept, etc.
This was a special and Wallace just interviewed people in Bridgeport/Canaryville area bars/homes during Game 4 of the series. They found themselves at a bar during the 9th inning, and you can see the crowd very tense, while Wallace is interviewing people as they game is playing live behind them. One gentleman, who appears in his 50's, is sitting at the bar, casually talking about the generations of SOX fans and what a WS win will mean for the city and how long hes waited ........Hes talking and watching the game at the same time, when Suddenly, the grounder to Uribe, throws to Konerko for the win.........The place goes bananas, people are dancing and cheering, and Wallace says wow hey how do you feel, the guy has the biggest smile and is about to answer, Pauses .....then says "excuse me" to the camera and turns and begins Sobbing to himself............. Theres a respectful silence from Wallace .........with the Cheering and Dancing around of the fans in the background. The gentleman then says "ive been waiting so long for this ..........." and continues to cry ........... Wallace smiling and not sure what to do next than says, ok .........and the camera cuts away.
What a great SOX moment ..........
