There are LOTS....but I thought it would be a COOL idea to start a thread so that we can add to it whenever something happens to remind us of Freddie....
Like I dont know if you all know it but I am also a Mike Piazza fan...He is the catcher for the METS....hes ADORABLE.... and anyway...there was this article I was reading when the pope passed about how Mike had visited him back in 2002 and how religious Mike is. I am a catholic....not that I can really say I practice catholocism but I was raised catholic...and I do remember One thing that CHICO always said... "THANK YOU GUADALUPE" and while I always knew it to be a saint of some kind, I had NEVER before or since heard it mentioned ................Well, this is FROM the article I read.............. WHICH IMMEDIATELY MADE FREDDIE COME TO MIND..................... " QUOTE:" While on a team trip to Mexico in 2003, Piazza — who thought of becoming a priest before his home-run-hitting prowess led him to the baseball diamond —was the only Met who ventured to visit the sacred Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe. |

Oh to find another Met fan.... we are so few these days.... I spent most of my highschool years glued to a seat at Shea with my friends, when we weren't going around stalking our favorite players at all their personal appearances. BTW Buddy Harrelson was my fave back then.... which tells you how old I am! LOL I even went to the third game of the 73 world series at Shea!
I haven't lost my love for the Mets, but I have a new love.... The Nationals. There are several Hispanics, I think a few from PR on the team. I bet Freddie loved baseball. I only wish I knew which team he followed. I always hoped it wouldn't be the Yankees but living so close to their stadium, I bet he went to several Yankee games! |

I'm not a huge baseball fan but I do know who Mike Piazza is. The last game I went to at Miller Park the Mets were playing the Brewers. I like all the women were glued to the Jumbo Tron watching the picture of Mikes and his stats. Mike always reminded me of Freddie and boy could he swing a bat!

I don't know much about sports but Miike does being a baseball, football & basketball nut.
I did see a coupla things that reminded me of Freddie this week. The other nite in Walmart I saw a magazine called Looking Good & I could just hear in my mind Freddie saying it. The other day my hubby & I were watching one of our Dukes Of Hazzard dvd's & the narrator (Played by Waylon Jennings) says get out your can here comes the garbage man. Louies old line.

Yesterday when Mike & I went shopping in Richmond, I saw a billboard along the side of the road that was written in spanish. I dunno what it said but it reminded me of Freddie...

this isn't exactly a direct reminder of Freddie, in church there is a man who usually sits in the row ahead of us who reminds me of Isaac Ruiz in the pictures Suz shared with us of her trip to meet with him. and since he reminds me of Isaac i always naturally think of Freddie too

Everytime I see the bobbing head doggie in my car it reminds me of Freddie. Or whenever I see anything that has a bobbing head it reminds me of him.

This is too weird. While on here I had the news on. Suddenly they had a feature on there on an image of the Virgin Mary that has sown up on an underpass in somewhere like Chicago. They said folks thought it looked like the Virgin of Guadalupe. A Virgin of Guadalupe mention while on here? Gave me the chills...

OMG coincidence, Cheryl! My seven year old daughter brought home a poetry book from school yesterday that had a picture in it of candles in glass jars with images of the Virgin Mary on them. The one on the right was Guadalupe!

I think the GUADALUPE thing is a DEFINATE nudge from Freddie......
This is something I have NEVER heard except from Chico and I HAD to mention it here....I was compelled.....now SUDDENLY we are ALL hearing or seeing something to do with GUADALUPE.....it just CANT be a coincidence... We hear you Freddie... We love you and we will never forget you.

Last nite I saw something that reminded me of Freddie even tho it wasn't really Freddie related. Ya'll might remember that pic of Johnny Depp as a pirate that Luckymama had as her avatar on here for awhile. Well I was looking at some magazine last nite in a bookstore & that pic of Johnny Depp was in it. It reminded me of Freddie & Luckymama too.
& Then later last nite I heard the Spinners 70's song "Could It be I'm Falling In Love' on the local oldies station. That reminded me of Freddie cuz he liked the Spinners & I bet he liked that song...

LYRICS: Theres a spark of magic in your eyes Candy land appears each time you smile Never knew that fairy tales came true But they come true...when I'm near you Your a genie in disguiese....full of wonder and surprise Betcha by golly wow....your the one that Ive been waiting for forever... and ever will my love for you...keep growing strong.......... |
