Some things are worth waiting for, even when the waiting lasts 99 years.

In anticipation of her 99^th birthday, Catherine Kyle got to go to her very first Pirates game.  Despite living near Pittsburgh and being a “huge fan,” Kyle had never lived that dream.

Family members decided to make it happen.  Wearing bright yellow tee-shirts proclaiming the words “Catherine’s Crew,” 16 of them accompanied her to the big event.

The Pirates were celebrating also.  They won big: 14-0!
