Basketball Jones

There was a story in the L.A. Times sports page on the song last week and it brought back the fine memory of Wildmans most famous night.It was winter of Senior year and a bunch of us went to see Pittsford Mendon play E.R..We went to watch that wild eyed afro star Bill Moser the white wonder and of course to party.There were two rows of us high up in the bleachers and guys like Deacon were in the front row shielding us as we sucked on beers and those goat skin flasks full of rotgut wine.Right before halftime we looked around and noticed Bob was no longer with us.Someone pointed out that Bob was now sitting on the end of the Mendon Bench next to Mose in his winter cap and Tocque.At halftime Bob wander into the lockeroom and asked Dick Heffernan while he was yelling at these guys.They were his friends man.Well Bob was escorted outside and we smuggled him back in by switching outfits.Bob actually quit partying for a few weeks after that but was soon back sucking the wine and smoking the Devil Weed.
