Van Patton-Van Patten Tomato-Tomatoe. I was in Miami doing an appearance and the people who were putting on this huge Celebrity Golf and Tennis Tournament asked me to participate. It was in Boca Raton. We played golf at Bear Creek I think it was called. Dr. J was in my foursome. He cheats really bad. We did pretty good. We also help open a new gym called Olympus if I remember right. I actually played basketball which I suck except I can shoot. Just not dribble and walk at the same time. We played a local fireman/policeman team for charity. My teammates included; Dr. J., John Havlichick(?), and Rick Barry. Needless to say I was in awe.
Rick Barry plys tennis very good. I remember sitting with Grandma Gerulitis and Vitas and he was saying how good he was. One of the neatest things I rememeber was getting free tennis shoes from Kapaa(?) Everyday we got a free pair. they had some kind of interchangable plastic inserts. Pretty cool.
