    I waited a lifetime for tonight. The Houston Astros are World Series Champions. And it feels great!

    Congrats to everyone young and old and those who have moved on but were looking down tonight. The Houston Astros are World Series Champions.

    I can't stop grinning. I love you all!

    The Houston Astros are World Series Champions!

    I remember joining the BBS in 2001 thinking of what it would be like to celebrate a championship. 16 years later here we are.

    I remember my first game as a kid at the Astrodome in the late 80s like it was yesterday. Finally WS Champions. It's surreal.

    I would have retired five years ago if I knew it would lead to this

    Well then, I blame you for not having multiple titles by now.

    To think that we once pinned our hopes on guys like Jon Singleton and Jarred Cosart turning into franchise centerpieces...

    Congrats Houston and all you fans on here! How big is this, were the Astros a joke in years prior or were they considered very good in recent years and this year? Is this an upset?
    I don’t have any ties to Houston whatsoever and the Rockets could be from any city in the US and I’d root for them, but can’t say I haven’t followed the scores and finding myself a bit happy when Astros won.

    After watching a few of the celebration videos ... there's a good chance of a mini baby boom in 9 months.
