yea, that's a fairly typical day in the life of Scoop...

Replace Blatz with Schlitz, and you'd be on to something.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

My dad always had the fridge stocked with Blatz.  I never heard of Schlitz until long after it went out of production.   We never had Hamm's in the house either but I at least heard of it when I was young.

back in the day, Blatz was the beer of choice for all the cheap beer drinkers.

Yes sir.  My dad's Friday evening trip to Discount Liquor while mom and I were at Kohl's.  We lived a mere 6 blocks away.  Finally when he was retired I convinced him that he could graduate to MGD or something.

And yes we did Serb Hall for fish fry at least once a month.  Life was somehow simpler back then.

Loved the Hamm's commercials back in the 70's during timeouts of Bucks games back then...on channel 18

The Hamm's song was Marquette's own back in the day...

Roger that, Doc.

That was such an integral part of the Marquette Game Experience.

Back in the day we were the nuts on the boulevard. Opponents knew that the Arena was a snake pit and playing Marquette was something to be feared.

I really like this kid, he almost looks veteran- like when he's on the court.  When Wojo can afford  to drop him into the 3-2 slots he will be a much bigger scorer.
