An avid Mizzou fan, he immediately said yes. We had a great time, and it really felt good to give something back to a guy who had done so much for so many others.
I had a collage made of various items from the game (the Star flyer that was handed out in the parking lot afterward, the Daniel SI cover, my ticket, and a photo of Joe and I taken immediately after it ended) which hangs on the wall of my den over my computer. I'm looking up at it as I write this. Joe is smiling down at me. I like it.

I had so much fun bantering over the years with Joe over the Royals and Mizzou.
