Reggie was known as being gruff with fans but I saw him in a bank sign autographs for 20 min thats how ling it took me to cash my check it was in 74 so we had to wait in line back then. When I parked a saw his Porshe Plate MVP74 so I knew he was around it was in downtown Oaktown. If you said hey Jackson, you might get a lecture. Show respect and be polite you'd be in.
@epidoteaintemerald are you being serious? he came with my dad to sunday school when my dad was a kid but he was not so famous then. it was when he played with the oakland A's
@kisscactus Yanks fans (including the media) have no problem adulterating/not being bothered with facts - we can't have the A's being the only other team with three consecutive World Series and Mr. October actually winning more rings and an AL MVP with another team now can we?
My new book on Reggie's great 1978 Yankees team, The Greatest Comeback Ever, is the only book ever written by a fan, live-time on a great sports season. It's available at Amazon.
I am listening to Reggie now on the Howard Stern show and he seems like a refined gentleman. I had heard that he was a bit of a jerk but you know there is always two sides of every story. I don't watch baseball anymore but was a huge Yankess fan when I was in my teens. Yes, I was in front of the T.V.when he hit the three homers. Unbelievable! ...Reggie Bars were great too. I wish they still made them- REG-GIE REG-GIE REG_GIE REG_GIE !
yes, reggie and the oakland A's. this is where is will be remembered.
the angels, yankees, were just followers.
i enjoyed watching allof his games.
he was larger the the ownership. loved baseball, was respectfull, what a great dude. i remember how he waited for a better deal. i was so nervous that he had overdone it. but he prevailed and got his contract. not showing up for spring training and such. that was the big news for the day, it was all about reggie...
Talent and skills is what desribes Reggie Jackson! Heard he's into playing in Poker Tournaments too! I think there is one in September he will be competing in, man i want to go bad.
When Reg .came to the Angels in 82, I could'nt believe it .When he was on the Yanks and they played the Angels before they got him ,they boo'ed the shit out of him .i gotta say the 1982 "Angels were the best team .: Jackson, Carew ,Decinces, Baylor and Grich.F" yeah!!
Reggie was a great player, he had more talent than most major league baseball players. If not for Charlie O Finley's off field antics against Reggie, in Oakland, who knows how many taters Mr. October would've hit.

If only My New York Mets had drafted Reggie when they had a chance. Instead of drafting some catcher who never even made the big leagues.

Correction: Reggie Jackson helped Oakland win THREE World Series titles. (Not two) Oakland won in 1972 thru 1974.
