Jamie Moyer knows what a championship parade in Philadelphia looks, feels and sounds like.
He was a senior at Souderton High School in Montgomery County when the Phillies won the World Series in 1980. He got so caught up in the euphoria of his favorite team's winning it all that he played hooky and headed down to the big city to be part of the victory celebration.
(What's the statute of limitations on truancy, anyway?)
All these years later, Moyer is still one of you. He's a Philadelphia sports fan. And today, on fan appreciation day, he holds your sporting dreams - and his - in his left hand.
