Description: The Denver Dream All-Time All Star Game Ticket Stub - DiMaggio Aaron Mays They called it the Denver Dream.In the weeks preceding the first old-timers game at Mile High, promoter Barry Fey had a dream of his own. He dared to dream that local baseball fans would pack the place to see a bunch of 50-year-old men replaying the glory days of their youth."We had the press conference to announce the game and some guy in the press asked me how big a crowd I needed to break even," Fey said. "I said just a hair over 30,000 and he laughed. He said, "That's pretty ambitious, isn't it?' I said, "I'll tell you what. I'll come closer to selling out than breaking even.' To make a long story short, 58,000 people showed up."So did Henry Aaron and Willie Mays and Bob Gibson and, yes, Joe DiMaggio. He didn't suit up, but coached third base. Not that it mattered. Just the sight of Joe D turned the place upside down."The highlight was the introductions," Fey said. "We brought in Jack Brickhouse to announce the players. He introduces Aaron and Mays and the place goes absolutely crazy. But when DiMaggio came out, people were crying. It was unbelievable."
