RIP Kirby

This is indeed sad. :( RIP, Kirby.

:angel: R.I.P. Mr. Puckett:angel: ~

I have no words to describe what I'm feeling right now. :( I saw almost 600 games that this man played in. I used to sit in centerfield at the metrodome just to watch him close up. I remember being in the stands for game 6 of the 1991 world series watching him singlehandedly beat the Braves. The entire state of Minnesota is in shock, me included.
