uff. I'll never forget going to a park on College Ave between Broadway and Apache (I can't remember the name of it right now.....getting too old!) where we were having some sort of picnic with people who were in the Guitar Ensemble and Jim Tapson decided to show off in his car and was peeling through the parking lot and crashed right into a tree! Luckily, he wasn't hurt, but it was so funny cuz he thought he was so cool at the time....until he crashed, that is! I will also never forget the time a bunch of us went ice skating at Oceanside Ice Arena, I think it was called, and afterwards Brian Scott and Mike Kane wanted to go "cruising" down Central Ave. in Phoenix, so we did (it was lame that night though), and I told them I had to stop somewhere and let my parents know why I was going to be late, so two carloads of us stopped at an old hotel on Van Buren to use the pay phone, and the manager of the hotel I guess he was, pointed a shotgun at me and told me to "get the hell out of there!" I started running back to the car screaming, "He's got a gun!" and everyone piled back into the cars and we tore out of there as fast as we could! Kathy Luttrell was trying to duck down while she was driving to dodge any bullets in case the guy shot at us! He didn't, but then on the freeway on the way home, we got a flat tire, so I was REALLY late getting home! Good times!! Haha! I didn't tell my parents about the guy with the gun until many years later.
