Curse of the Bambino

[pmb_phy]

If you look hard enough you can find numbers to fit whatever you need

Babe Ruth's year of birth: 1948
Age when Ruth died: 53
Jersey number: 3

1948 + 53 + 3 = 2004 = year Boston Red Sox won world series ending the "Curse of the Bambino" :biggrin:

I give up. Why? Were you going to baseball games during the years he was playing? Babe Ruth stopped playing baseball in 1935. Were you going to baseball games before 1935?

I think that was the year Ruth died. Yes, it was.
