TONYHey Bruce, I almost forgot about chasing the kid who stole a binder of my baseball cards,
that kid probably picked the only dealer in the room who could have chased him down,
He ran all the way down to Lankershim blvd, even though it was almost all downhill it was a battle
as the kid was a top runner on his high school cross country team,
He should of stole from Kit Young not me,
After I caught him I punched him, but I was so tired he didn't even feel my punch to his chest,
I came back with the thief, called the cops & had him arrested, but being a minor all he would get was a slap on the wrist
but later his father showed up, a 6' 3" biker type with 10 tattos on his body,
he basically threatened me if i pressed charges on his theiving son,
I never did, but got all my cards back, I was really lucky to get them back
Being a competitive runner at the time saved me a few thousand dollars in potential losses at the time plus a LA Times reporter who was there at the time did a story on the incident which was in the next days paper
the good ole days!!!
