'Twas Game Six of the Series when out of the sky, Flew Sergio's parachute, a Met banner held high. His goal was to spur our home team to success, Burst Beantown's balloon claiming Sox were the best.

'Twas Game Six of the Series when out of the sky, Flew Sergi

Summary

This quote depicts a significant moment in baseball, specifically Game Six of a series. Sergio, a fan, descends from the sky with a parachute, waving a banner supporting the New York Mets in their match against the Boston Red Sox. The purpose of his bold act is to motivate and rally the home team to victory. By metaphorically bursting Boston's ego, Sergio encapsulates the dedication and fanaticism of baseball fans, who believe their team is the ultimate and will stop at nothing to see them succeed.

On page 605, Blumenthal says that 'I made friends with Hitchens's friends the novelists Martin Amis and Salman Rushdie.' True in its way.

No Rushdie: no invitation. So I never did get to meet Dick Morris.
