My aunt makes her “World Series chili” every year. She only makes it for the series, not for the regular season. It’s her tradition. You should start a little tradition too. Maybe it’s a specific snack, or a lucky t-shirt.
These small rituals are what make the event feel personal. Years from now, you won’t remember the final score of Game 2. But you will remember laughing with your family during the seventh-inning stretch.
So, October 25th. Put it on your fridge. Set a reminder on your phone. Tell your friends you’re “busy” that night. You’re not busy with work, you’re busy with the best show of the autumn season.
And if someone asks you why you care, just smile and say, “Because it’s the World Series, my friend. It’s where memories are made.” Trust me, that answer works every time.
