Great story, thanks for posting. Here's the happy ending.

"Maybe if I had been wanting for money, it'd be different," Huyette said. "But I make a good living. I wasn't going to hold the country hostage for the ball.

"I told them I didn't need any money, but it'd be nice to meet some of the players."

And so what ended up happening is that Huyette ended up living every Cardinals' fan dream, gaining access to the clubhouse with the team having just forced a World Series Game 7 on Friday night. Reiland, meanwhile, lived out every Chicago Cubs fans' nightmare with surprising good humor, posing for pictures alongside Freese while wearing enemy colors. The pair had missed their shuttle back to the casino where they had parked their car, but they were having the time of their lives. They'd just catch a cab.

"He didn't tell me he was going to wear that shirt before we came," Huyette cracked. "This is ridiculous."
