Griffin'sA few years ago I walked out of my studio into the common hallway, and Bo Jackson and 2 other guys were walking towards me. Bo asked me if I new where the ad agency next door to me was, and without thinking I blurted out "Bo don't know?". The other 2 guys nearly fell over laughing, but Bo just looked at me. I apologized and sent them the right way, with the other 2 still laughing. My neighbor told me later as soon as he sat down Bo starting laughing and what would've been a tough meeting went pretty easily.
As a kid Tony Horton (AL ROY in '70) and Rick Monday were both on my paper route. And our little league coach was Terry Bevington, who went on to manage the White Sox. He didn't do any better with them than he did with us.
