when i was 14 my brother would go to melbourne jai-alai and come
home and describe to me how boniguin would climb the wall. they
used to put the entries in the paper so every time mutilla and
sarduy played together i would give my bro $2 for a show ticket.
more often than not he would come home late and hand me 5 or 6
bucks or so. then when i turned 17 he got me in without being
carded. it was the last night of the year and very crowded. i
remember betting the 8 across the board because i liked the style
of the backcourt gondra. they took the game straight out. 14 years
later i played with gondra and we got to game point our first
time together. it was neat to play against the guys i watched
in my first encounter.
