Here’s everything you need to know about Yogi Berra.
Yogi was a catcher for the New York Yankees. He charmed and puzzled the world with his child-like musings and malaprops.
“You can observe a lot just by watching.” – Yogi
He made enough money playing baseball to afford a nice house in Montclair. In fact, he made so much money that he could afford to buy a second refrigerator, just for beer, and get it installed on his front porch.
Two of the older guys from our corner worked part time delivering heavy appliances. They were thrilled that they’d get to meet Yogi.
They lugged the new refrigerator up the porch steps and got it over to where he wanted it. They made it level and plugged it in.
He gave them each a dime.
“When you come to a fork in the road, take it.” – Yogi
No, you take it, Yogi. Take it straight to hell.
