"Thirty years later, a kid named Benjamin Franklin Rodriguez... became a neighborhood legend. It was in the greatest summer of my life... when he taught me to play baseball, and he became my best friend. And he got me out of the biggest pickle I'd ever be in. I moved to the neighborhood two weeks before school let out. It was the same summer that Dodger Maury Wills would break the stolen bases record. So with something that incredible going on, it should've started off with loads of great things happening for me, but it didn't. I was from another state, and I didn't have a single friend in a thousand miles. It was a lousy way to end up the fifth grade, 'cause I had zip time to make friends before summer. And that's about where it all started."

Sandlot is real good for multiple reasons:

1. It brings back memories for kids that played any game (baseball, football, hockey...etc.) in recreational ways or pick up games.

2. It introduces a life style that was not seen by some 90’s kids. For example, I didn’t know those good songs like Finger Poppin Time. Thanks to my parents and Sandlot I now know them. It also shows how life was like and gives a nostalgic feeling.

This is why I love this movie.

You mean to say the kids growing up in the 2000s did not get to experience this way of life. I was born in 1987 and grew up in the 90s in the suburbs of Los Angeles County, and I lived the Sandlot life. Good ol times. ❤

In the late 80's I worked at a storage facility where Hank Ballard kept his tour bus. He would walk in the door with so much energy and say, I love ya, I love ya, I love ya. A real gentleman with a gorgeous wife. Sadly she was killed when they went to New York and he was inducted into The Hall of Fame. He's gone now, but a wonderful experience to be around such a class act

He lived around the corner from us and Hank Aaron also moved in our neigborhood when the Braves became the “ATLANTA BRAVES”!!
But Hank Ballard had a mansion and we all dance to his music too!!’ I just celebrated 76 solar returns and been playing blues harmonica since 1966 at 19 years young!
Now 57 years blowing harmonica having been blessed to know and play with Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, Big Mama Thornton, Koko Taylor, James Cotton, Jr. Wells, Billy Boy Arnold, Greg “Fingers” Taylor, Jimmy Hall, Cary Bell, Billy Branch, Harnonica Hines, Sugar Blue and my beloved mentor Big Walter Horton
just to name a few and “Hank Ballards Finger Poping Time” was my pre-teen years when the little girls became beautiful little goddesses to be loved and adored, not hated and called b’s like these fools talk treat woman today is so tragic alone with her still being disrespected in this crazy world ruled by men as our children suffer!

As Domenic Priore mentions in his book "The Story of Brian Wilson's Lost Masterpiece Smile", Brian Wilson ofcourse being the grandmaster of The Beach Boys, the tunes - The Frogmen "Underwater" from 1961 - as well as the tune - "Finger Poppin' Time" by Hank Ballard & The Midnighters - form the basis of the 1968 smashing hitsingle - "Do It Again" by The Beach Boys - enjoy ;-)
