I was sitting there in the clubhouse afterwards, having a beer and a sandwich with Don "The Snake" who had just won also.
They pulled back the curtain for the payouts and handed me a stack of 100, one dollar bills! I felt like I robbed a bank that night.
Hey Mark, you forgot to add your (to date), being the only national event winner with a fwd stocker, due to your E-town win back in '86...that is both unequalled and unprecedented , plus a history maker!
