I would have said "a 1950's Brooklyn Dodgers fan" (sniffle). It was always "wait 'til next year," and then the year Next Year finally came, they up and left town. :-( That's gratitude for you! (Some of us never got over the insult, as you can see!)

Then we had to become Mets fans...at least we knew how!
