He shoots, he scores! The Richard Bros...the Mahovolich Bros. Can’t forget Eddie Shack...Bobby Orr...and on...and on...and on...
What memories...the SRO at Olympia on New Years Eve. That was my date destination for many years. My girlfriend at that time called Gordie Howe...:Howie Gordon. She was cool in many ways (I won’t go into the details though). That upstairs bar at Windsor Harness Raceway on a Saturday night Leafs v. Canadians game...that place was rocking & rolling like no other sports bar I’ve ever been in.
A heaping paper plate of fries for $1.00 and a Molson Canadian. Hockey heaven. In fact that’s where I first laid eyes on my wife of 44 years.
Yeah, I like to tell people we 1st met in a foreign country. Sounds intriguing. There is...way more to that story, too. Fascinating how paths cross.
