I lived in West Newton and Arlington in the 80’s. Worked on Copley Square. Other than Wilmington, DE, I’ve never met more unfriendly people.

What was almost as awesome at the time was the first name of the four primary defensemen for them at the time:

Bob(by Orr)

Carol (Vadnais)

Ted (Green)

Dallas (Smith)

Bob and Carol and Ted and Dallas
