Oh yes i do, complete with Ron Fimrite, one of the great baseball writers. There was indeed some brilliant debauching in those weeks, as pretty much a who's who of baseball got souced there each night.

Les Lapin Sauvages?  ja, i remember when they invited a team from russia for a match. i was so enthralled to meet some very famous russians i ran up russian hill (to my home) to get some real amurkan baseballs for them to bring back to the land where baseball and pizza were invented.

god they made great drinks. god we made great conversation.

(i'll be back there 2nd week december, god willing and the creeks don't rise.)
