I met Art in Biloxi thru Eddie Ray back in the late 70s. Eddie and I played in a golf tourney together that Art was also playing in. You cannot shake hands with that guy without getting a couple of fingers broken. In a bar one night Eddie warned me: if crap starts make damn sure you get BEHIND Art. Nobody wants to be in front of him. He was pleasant to talk to only because he liked Eddie and myself. I asked him about a few horror stories I heard about him and he assured me they were all TRUE.

Good running back in the era....however, he as the baddest of the baddest in any bar. I was there and saw him in action at the Pastime. Too many stories to just tell one. Just know that he was the baddest ever, even though he wasn't really big, but massively strong, and his hands and forearms massive from slinging that machete in sugar cane field, or so I was told.
Great to see this film of him and that he is doing well. Hard to imagine looking at him today, but the stories are true.
