What were you doing 12yrs ago when McGwire broke Roger Maris 61 homeruns record?

[Ted]

I was sitting in my room watching the game & 12 yrs later i am doing the same watching another game..The more things change the more they stay the same..

What about you?

I wasn't really a huge baseball fan at the time (I was 10), but I remember watching it on TV with my parents who aren't baseball fans at all.

I was watching it on TV, it was amazing (at the time) but knowing what I do now I've almost erased it from my memory bank.

Like many others, I was watching; unlike them, I was enjoying the spectacle...

I was 3 years old...

To me Maris still holds the record. McGwire sucks.

I was in mourning.

I was 9. I was swimming at our local swim club when one of the life guards came over the intercom and said that McGwire had broken the record.

Maris still holds the record, he didn't use steroids

[HubertC]

i was working on my thesis "Juiced baseball and strange occurrences". I was looking at players being injured after having great seasons. Mo Vaughn Kirby Puckett and Ken caminitti . I didn't have a clue it was all about steroids or know steroids were and had infested the game.
