...I was going to the concession stand at Fenway Park, a.k.a. Baseball
Heaven, to buy a drink for my boy.  I had an M6 on my neck.  A young
stranger stopped me and asked, "Are you Harry Callahan?"  I was flattered,
but had to tell him that Harry had died at the age of nearly ninety a year
or two ago.  I look old, but...!

Perhaps only in Boston, at Fenway Park.
