Remember exactly where I was when I heard. Senior year in high school (frick...) and I was walking between the football stadium and main school building at Hahnville High and my baseball coach who I was close with, Steven Weber (who was the principal at Destrehan for a long while..may still be for all I know) walked up and told me the news.

Strange thing to remember that vividly given I have no real memories of seeing Pistol play live...

i'm not old enough to remember him, but my dad used to tell me all kinds of stories from his LSU days, to his time with the Jazz. i always wore 23 and people always thought it was for MJ.

I played some pick up games with him at the Metairie YMCA (now hospital buildings). True story.
