Where were you when the Phillies won the World Series 10 years ago today? We asked, and you told us.

The region awoke 10 years ago today — Oct. 29, 2008 — to begin yet another day without a championship. It had been more than 25 years since Philadelphia's last major-sports title.

It's been a decade since the 2008 World Series title, when Brad Lidge struck out Eric Hinske and Charlie Manuel hollered, "This is for Philadelphia."

Jamie Moyer, one of the heroes of the 2008 World Series, likes to ask fans where they were when the Phillies won it all. So that's what we did.

Everyone has a story, Moyer said. And he was right.
