Randy Johnson's 300th Win Day - 2024 - 15th Anniversary


Five years ago today, it was the 10th anniversary of Randy Johnson's 300th Win, and throughout the day I was posting my 10th Anniversary celebration posts. It was a project that I was working on for six months, and not surprisingly it opened to a complete thud. Nobody paid any attention to it, and even now Part IV, the longest part of the entire series, had somehow disappeared off the face of the earth. Oh well. 

Of course the fact that five years have gone by means today is the 15th anniversary of Randy Johnson's 300th Win! Today I went to Globe Life Field in Arlington to pick up a giveaway replica 2023 World Series ring. It was a long and arduous process that involved standing in line for over an hour. And instead of the wonderfully overcast day we had in DC in 2009, it was well over 90 degrees with humidity, making it a tough experience. And then I didn't stay for the game, because I still have to do my Randy Johnson's 300th Win Day festivities, which will probably just consist of me rewatching Randy Johnson's 300th Win while playing The Sims 3, which was what I had wanted to do on June 4, 2009 before the rainout the night before delayed my plans for the 4th.
