INDUCTION WEEKEND 2018

Main Street Crowds

Starting To Gather

As of noon today, some fans were thinking ahead to 6 p.m. Saturday and  Induction Weekend’s Parade of Legends:  They had already set up their chairs across from the Hall of Fame entrance on the post office’s sidewalk to get the best view of the game’s best players entering a VIP reception at 25 Main St.   From left are Stephen Burnett, Brooklyn, Angels fan;  Claudia and Glenn Kay, Hauppauge, L.I., Mets fans; Dave Fylipek, Town of Queensbury, Yankee fan; and John Hower, Berwick Pa., Orioles fan.  In the second row are Sharon Manning, Severna Park, Md. Orioles, and Bill Pulver, Schenectady.  Some of the fans plan to sit there through the night, reserving their front row seats.  Inset is Denny McLain, the beloved Detroit Tiger from the 1960s; also signing this afternoon were Goose Gossage, Juan Marichal, Rollie Fingers and other standouts.  (Jim Kevlin/AllOTSEGO.com)
