5 Questions: From Abilene to Wrigley: A Fan’s Return to Baseball and the Heart of a Community
Description
We trace Terry’s path from Little League dust to a summer wood-bat revival, and how a small-town team brought a community back together. Along the way, we swap heartbreaks, hat collections, marathon games, and a father–son golf memory that sticks forever.
• Abilene roots and early baseball influence
• High school dynasty lessons and details
• Stepping away from playing and shifting to golf
• The Flying Bison launch and community lift
• Kids, autographs and summer-league pathways
• Big memories: state tournament, A&M–LSU, Rangers 2023
• The 15-inning classic and shared fandom
• Rituals: arrive early, buy caps, chase ice cream helmets
• The 100-game challenge and scorekeeping as connection
• Sports as common ground across differences
