Used to work at a business that Bert frequented. The guy was cool as hell and was always making wise cracks. Has this "good ole boy" kind of personality, nice guy.

I grew up with his kids, graduated HS with one of them. I've actually been to a few parties at his house. Pretty cool guy.

So, you work in ruston?
I graduated with his eldest son, I'm pretty sure he was much more interested in hunting than sport, but he could definitely catch.
Berts daughter was a very good track athlete. All around a very nice family and very personable. I just wish his remembering the old days of playing on Mcdonalds crap turf didn't effect his disdain for all turf, which is why Ruston doesn't have turf even though it is badly needed.

Cool. Loved his work when he did color commentary for TigerVision.

I met him several years ago at he and his brother's lumber place up near Ruston...ol boy has lineman hands - no wonder he could grip and rip a footbal. Seems like a damn nice guy though...saw him again a few days later in Baton Rouge filming a commercial at Hollingsworth Mazda and he chatted up some more with me like he knew me...fan for life of Bert Jones.
