Here he come, right outta the cheap seats, dribblin'. Right down the

middle of the floor. Didn't have on nothin' but his Keds! Made a hook,

shot and got out through the concession stand. I hollered up at Ethel,

I said "DON'T LOOK, ETHEL!!"...Too late ! She'd already gotten a free

shot. Grandstand. Right there in front of the home team.
