It was a two hours’ ride. After they arrived, they walked in the street for two hours, carrying a that read, “ We need two tickets.” There were many scalpers around, but the ticket was $200. They were about to when suddenly a man stopped them. He took out two tickets and them to Mr. Clinton.

“How much do you want?”

“Just a ,” said the man. “Enjoy the game.”

Mr. Clinton wouldn’t accept, so the man explained, “I’m Jackson. Hans is my boss. He and his wife haven’t a World Series in 18 years. he is ill and can’t watch the game this time. So he told me to give the two tickets to people who I thought would actually enjoy the game. A lot of people looked they might just take the tickets and sell them. Then I saw you and I you for a while. You seemed very . You made me think of my dad and me when I was a child. I dreamed going to a World Series game with my father. But my dream came true.”

How do you suppose this made Mr. Clinton and his son feel? Here is what Mr. Clinton said： “This is the most wonderful thing ever happened to us. My boy and I must have turned to each other over 30 times and said, ‘I can’t believe this.’ We still never forget Jackson and Hans.”
