The 3rd periodic 340 Club Reunion has been postponed indefinitely

Before there was an Animal House there was a 340 Club; before there was a Dean Wormer there was a Harold "the fuck" Martin; before there was John Blutarsky or a Daniel Simpson Day there was Tim Lutter, Sil Simpson, Dan Joyce, Tim Getzloff, Dick Lichty, Jim Shay, Phil Zangari, Chris Joyce, Dave Petkosh, Mitch Herr, Kenny Giltner, Dean Staherski, Randy Brown, John Emswiler, Sue Krimmell Emswiler and myself; before there were any Delta Tau Chi pledge pins, there were 340 Club cards; before Otis Day & the Knights, the 340 Jukebox; before there were Delta Brothers there were the usual gang of idiots that congregated at 328, 340 (twice) and 338 West King Street in Lancaster, Pennsylvania for a decade beginning in August 1974. This blog is dedicated to those idiots and those times. God bless Kenny, Mitch and Chris; may they rest in peace.

Shameless Promotions

1) please use the link to the Glory of Their Times at the bottom of the blog or use this one http://blog.pennlive.com/gloryoftheirtimes/ to check out my other, totally unrelated, blog. It is a fantasy baseball season - today was opening day - featuring the Harrisburg Giants (a great local Negro League team) as they challenge some of the greatest teams of all-time. In todays, opener Sandy Koufax and the 1965 Los Angeles Dodgers spoiled the opening day proceedings by beating the Giants 2-1. In honor of the linkage between the two blogs - Kenny Giltner threw out the ceremonial first pitch.

2) First call for this year's 37th annual St. Patrick's Day Pub Crawl scheduled to begin in Harrisburg, March 17th, at 1:00 p.m. I suppose since the 5th through 8th and 11th through 14th crawls eminated from the 340 Club there is a connection. In addition, at least in my case, it provides a warm up for the task at hand of June 7th.
