The Trophy

Created by Lynn Titus 14 years ago
Dates escape me, but the place was Dos Bandidos in Milwaukee. The tennis group had gathered there after our matches, but it was really crowded. Only thing to do was drink Margaritas as we waited and waited and waited. Well, Dandy Don is not known to be a big drinker and is normally on the quiet side, but he loves his Margaritas. When we finally got a table, Don was seated next to a table of strangers who began to have a heated argument. The woman told her partner that she thought he was an asshole, at which point Dandy stood up and addressed the man in a loud voice, saying: "Well I think you are an asshole, too". The entire table of tennis players turned to him as one, finally realizing that Dandy was completely smashed! The table erupted with laughter, with Bruce laughing the loudest of all! A week later, he called to say he had a presentation to make and showed up with a 10" Margarita glass mounted on a trophy base with the inscription: "Well I think you're an Asshole, Too", Dandy Don, Dos Bandidos, Milwaukee, WI. We still have it and it has always been a conversation starter. When we look at it now we remember the many happy times with Bruce, his infectious laughter and his Propensity to always make the party go on and on...We miss you, Brucie. Dandy Don and Lynn Titus
