I'm sure sorry to hear that. But also glad you made it through. Drunk drivers should be stoned to death.
Oh yeah lots of guys. I’m small now by today’s standards those dude out there in today’s game are huge. Biggest dude I ever had to cover was like 6’11 and I’d guess around 280lbs. My playing weight was around 220ish. I didn’t fair well in that match up. He out muscled me easily, but I out quicked and out ran him. He was the starting center for Miami. Man that brother could play he was tough and rugged. This was in a pick up game in Coral Gables at the University of Miami had to been late 1980’s.
I had a ground bearing 35 ton. ######## detached on me crossing the tracks at Russell Arkansas talk about intense. Had a customer machine on going to a quarry up on Russell Mountain. I traded that ###### the next day for a 50 ton Eagar Beaver non ground bearing. Had a rear lift axle, air ride for what I used it for it was a nice trailer. 855 Vermeer rock saw was biggest thing I ever put on it
Never made a Flyer game at the Spectrum. Saw numerous Sixer games there and a bunch of Phillies games at The Vet though. Growing up we spent a ton of time in Philly and the Jersey shore.
