HOUSTON — A 93-year old grandma will be in the sold-out crowd of 40,000+ baseball fans to pack Minute Maid Park tonight for Game 6 of the World Series.
93-and-a half to be exact, she tells us.
Faye Roberts, a quilter who lives in Katy, is attending her first-ever Astros World Series game with her granddaughter tonight.
If there was ever an Astros game to see in person, this would be it. It's a must-win game because the Atlanta Braves lead the 'Stros 3-2 in the best of seven series.
Roberts is a life-long sports fans who's loved the Astros ever since she moved to Houston in 1975. Very rarely does the grandmother miss a game. She even wears special sweatbands around her wrists when she watches. She'll be wearing a special set tonight.
“Good luck? I think it’s an Act of God,” Roberts joked about her attendance for Game 6.
When asked if she’s praying for a win: “I think they must win tonight if I’m there. I think they must win.”
