I actually sat down last night and hunted contact sheets and picked photos for the WayBack PAW four weeks into the future;^) Herewith, the current week 25 years ago: Eddie Feigner died just a month or so ago. He was the star of The King and His Court, a four-man softball team that barnstormed the world playing charity games against local all-star teams. It was a fun event with comedy as well as awesome talent. They usually kicked ass. You old farts may remember them from Sports Spectacular or Wide World of Sports if you didn't get to see them live. Eddie is seen here, in one of the regular bits, throwing 100mph strikes blindfolded. Eddie Jr. is there to protect him in case someone manages to hit it. After the game, we carried him to The Rebel, local redneck pool hall and bar (see WayBack Week 5). Eddie and the boys were as adept with a longneck as with a softball. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/ricc/PAW+2007+and+1982/WayBack +17.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/3b7j22 Ric Carter http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/ricc/
