Overheard at the Jays game

No joke, this is a real conversation I overheard today at the Blue Jays game. These people - two 20-something males - were sitting right behind me and David Major.

Guy 1: Kirby Puckett was one of my favourite players.
Guy 2: Yeah, Kirby Puckett's blind now, eh?
Guy 1: Kirby Puckett's actually dead now.
