[QUOTE="Frozencheese, post: 417888, member: 5193"] About 17 years ago, Ray Nitschke joined my uncle and my grandparents for dinner. My uncle had performed a minor surgery on Nitschke's niece or something, I cant quite remember. Anyhow, my Grandma asked him what he would like for supper in advance. "Meat and potatoes Ma'am" said Nitschke. Before dinner myself and few of my cousins stopped by and met Ray, he was very nice, and all I remember were his giant hand squeezing only a nano-fraction as hard as he could have. He signed a jersey for all of us (my most prized possession) After we had left, the HOF'er ate at my grandparents table with them and my uncle. A few days afterwords, my uncle said that while Ray's manners were very good when it came to "pleases and thank yous", Ray didnt even acknowledge his silverware. T-bone steak, baked potato, corn on the cob, and mix greens salad. He had two steaks, two bakers, and too much corn to count all with his bare hands. My grandpa said that Nitschke ate everything on his plate execpt the corn cobs, the bone, and his salad wasnt even touched. When asked my grandma said that she loved him even more knowing that a fork and knife only slowed him down when it came to red meat and potatos! Figured some of you might enjoy that one. :D [/QUOTE]
