[QUOTE="Oak, post: 3230694, member: 51519"] My dad did catch a foul ball off of Nolan Ryan. He got it signed by the whole team and I still have it. That was about the highlight of good memories the whole time I was there. Another, Dad and I slipped away from the hospital where my brother was to have a beer at the Sorento Hotel (pill hill area) around midnight one night. We were sitting at the bar having a beer and Dad asked me, "Is that Barry Switzer over there?" I had no idea who he was talking about and said, "Who?" He turned to the bartender and asked the same question. The bartender also said, "Who? I don't know." Dad asked him who he was sitting with and the bartender said, "That's the owner of the Seahawks." After a few, Dad got up and went to the men's room. On the was back I saw him stop at the booth where the two men were sitting. He looked straight at the guy and I heard him ask, "Anybody ever tell you look like Barry Switzer?" The guy's eyes got real big, then he he turned cool and said, "Oh yeah, I get that all the time! What's he doing now?" Dad said, "I don't know, but I think he's in Seattle!" [/QUOTE]
