some of the guys who ran the card game in the back of the pork chop brothers ' store brought out a folding table and a small grill , and pretty soon someone else carted out some coolers filled with schlitz and narragansett , and the air turned fat with the smell of grilled hot dogs and italian sausage , the wafting , smoky , charred smell and the whiff of open beer cans making jimmy think of fenway park and summer sundays and that tight joy you got in your chest when the adults kicked back and acted more like kids , everyone laughing , everyone looking younger and lighter and happy to be around each other .
