I began liking baseball at an early age but I grew up a Yankees fan because my 5 uncles all like the Yankees and when I was little they used to take me to games. They even forgot my shoes once and I had to run around Yankee Stadium barefoot! My favorite was, of course, Bucky Dent! I still have my button that says "Bucky Put A Dent In My Heart" and my little "Boston Sucks" t-shirt! Now you can find me at Shea and not just when the Braves are in town! My friend has a box so we catch quite a few games! There are many other teams I like including the Rockies and Marlins thanks to Denny and Mike!
Some know me as Pepe and I got that name because I collect Pepe le Pew (you know, the skunk from Bugs Bunny!) stuff. I am also known as Big Bird when the team is around thanks to Eddie! I love the Beanie Baby bears and I also collect Starting Line-Ups and baseball cards of Maddux, Glavine, Avery and Neagle.
I love to travel having been all over the United States as well as Canada, Europe and Australia. I did volunteer work for 5 years for United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) and some of the Braves were generous enough to donate autographed stuff for our annual sports auctions. Currently I obtain autographed items for the auctions at www.andruw.com benefiting different charities (American Cancer Society, Venezuelan Flood Relief). Lisa J. and I have been friends for 25 years!!! As for music, my favorites are U2, Pearl Jam, MB20, Duran Duran, Madonna and INXS but anything from the 80's or classic Disco will do! I also LOVE to go to the movies and when I am not there, I am home sitting at my desk on-line! I am also COMPLETELY addicted to The Amazing Race and Survivor!!! My favorite Survivor contestant of all time was Jeff Varner from Surviror 2: Australia. He is so sarcastic, I LOVE it!!!
