I remember there was only one white guy on Holy Redemers basketball team when we played them at the St Therese tournament and I think it was Matt Santangelo
We never went that far out. I think my parents occasionally went to a Kmart out there but I stayed in the car in case someone I knew was in the store
Ya the KMart on Sandy. You would have been the flyest guy in there. They had an awesome card store close called Hoopla.
Only thing I remember about Belmont is there was a Korean convince store I could buy porn movies from when I was 16 and they didn't care. It was like striking the jackpot.
My dad was the branch manager of the US Bank on the corner of Union and Killingsworth. There used to be a bunch of used car dealerships on Union, the bank handled all their flooring lines. One of the dealers needed a favor from the bank, wanted to loan out their cars for an "event." My dad agreed to it under one condition... And that's the time my dad pulled me out of school and took me to have lunch with Evel Knievel. The car dealer was providing the cars he jumped in the MC. My dad only agreed to sign off if I could meet him, lol. My dad was and still is cool as shit! One of the greatest days ever as a kid. Also got tickets to see the jump.
There were rumors back in the day that they would steal back stereos from cars. No idea the truth to those rumors. Loved the commercials that would wake me up late at night, though.
