When we were children, my friends and I all wanted to be him. We built ramps, lit them on fire, made pits of glass behind them all pretending to be him. Luckily none of us were ever harmed or mamed. He was our childhood idol. Sadly, when he walked into a showclub in St. Pete and sat down next to me at the bar, I did not recognize him. Not until the "ladies" cooing around him told me who he was. He had his cane and seemed sore, he had told me about a spill on a golf course, which I chided him about those don't get enough speed for those kinds of jumps, he smiled. We did have some small talk about him being my childhood idol, I tried to buy him a drink at the bar, instead he bought me 2 shots of Wild Turkey. It was a memorable time for me. He will always be remembered by me!..
