Back in the day, at Kincades, Harbaugh used to come in with RoboToe a lot. Especially On Saturdays, during the day to watch some college football. Got to talk to him a ton as the place was not that crowded during the day. First time he was there, said he didn't have any cash on him, asked if he could get me next time....then dropped a "You know who I am?"
Later that night, the owner told me not to charge him, assuming he tipped well enough. Well he didnt tip me at all.
2 Weeks later he is in, gives me a "Hey buddy" orders up some drunks, blah blah, he is about to leave and says "Do I owe you anything?" (Was about $40 in drinks and apps). I explained a tip would be nice, He broke out a $20 and asked if I had change. Told him I didn't (Lol). Said I could get him next time, kept the $20.
His nickname among players was "DOG" as in one that tries to fuck everything. The guy was a pussy hound.
Saw him years later in Vegas, playing $5 Blackjack at the MGM. Yes, $5 hands of Blackjack for the Colts QB at the time.
One other thing I remember was when the Bears drafted him he didnt play and would beg Ditka to play kickoff and ount team coverage just to get on the field. So you know he is a little nuts.
I guess it is better than going bankrupt but that is pretty miserly.
Bigfan, are you Highlander. You seem to be in your 20s from the 1970s until the 2000s.
