HANK Aaron has passed away

RIP. What a legend.
When I was a kid I remember watching a documentary we had on him on vhs over and over again. Damn that brings up so many memories now I haven't though about in a long time.

I remember as a young child watching him playing for the Eau Claire Braves.
 
He was the man, I'll do some "Hammerin" this weekend in his honor.
 
He seemed so cool the way he addressed interviews or public statements.
Unique home run swing.
And the way he reacted to racists that sent him death threats before he surpassed Ruth, and how he has spoken about it since. Admirable and not over the top
 
one of the classiest ever. perfect person to pass babe, even if it was more due to longevity than anything else. rip
 
Was listening to AM conservative radio today,in the upper MidWest region; they were all talking about him, giving him props.
 
Not just a great player but a great man. In the face of disgusting resistance he rose above and was an example of who we could be.
I learned today from AM conservative radio, that Hank Aron got tons of racist hate mail. Had to have FBI security detail. Received racist death threats for breaking Babe Ruth's record.
