Congrats to the Astros from a Mets fan. I have a lot of family in Houston and my dad grew up there. I've never been to Houston, but I'm sure you're all very proud right now. Awesome team you all have!

After Hurricane Harvey, this is definitely a plus for Houston.

Congratulations from Atlanta! I had no dog in this hunt but I was rooting for you after all you guys went through with Harvey.

Enjoy the celebrations!

Life long and Houston Franchise fan, from Tyler, who saw a Saturday night "fog out" in old Colt Stadium, a heck of a hot Sunday game in the summer, before the league allowed Sunday night games, thanks to Houston being so hot during summer day games.

Saw Mickey Mantel hit the first home run in the Dome.

I listened to the Houston Colt 45 games in Tyler when I was 16 years old, by placing a transistor radio "ON" my ear, station faded in and out lol From the top row of Colt Stadium, I stood up leaned over and watched Astrodome "rising up off the ground and out of the ground". Those were the days too.

Then moved to Houston for 20-25 yes, saw many games in the Dome.

Thanks Astros for a Great Season. Many more competitive years to come. Great guys.

Not with the "Tampons" owning the team.

Congrats to the Astros and their fans - well deserved!

As a diehard Mets fan, I can only hope! We definitely have the pitching if we could stay healthy!
