For obvious reasons. Who amongst the Bengals did you know? I once met Kenny Anderson when he was opening a Menard's store, nicest guy ithe world.

I once was close to Paul Newman at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It was Carburation Day and I was in waking through Gasoline Alley, and he and Rick Mears appeared. Shook Ric's hand, but Paul turned to talk to someone. Probably best that I didn't talk to him, I would have been all Chris Farley with him.
