10. I met him at a baseball card show. I had a table next to where he was selling autographs.

What stood out to me, there was a line of people waiting for signatures. A guy with a child reached the front of the line. The girl was maybe 3 years old. Yogi left his seat and walked to the front of the table to engage with the girl for a couple of minutes.

It looked like, for Yogi, there was nothing else in that room but the child. It struck me because my father was like that with little kids.

The father then got what must be the favorite photo in his point-and-shoot collection. Yogi bending down to talk to that little girl.
