#5 Posted: 5/23/2012 6:09:05 PM 1993 The Mirage in Las Vegas was 3 years old and changing the whole complex of what Las Vegas has become today.... I think Treasure Island opened in 1993.............
I was 19 yrs younger than I am now and just about that time I discovered the beauty and distinction of asian women ...... Yes, 1993 was a very good year...................... Money and box were abundant to the tune of decadence............... LOL................ |

Get OFF MY NUTS dude... I was in surgery with some problems of my own back then and don't remember much of those playoffs. Go find a friend elsewhere I'm not interested. |

#12 Posted: 5/24/2012 10:50:03 AM I was living in the northeast part of Tennessee working at my first job out of college. It was the only place I ever lived where I couldn't play. 
Me and a guy from New York used to go down to Knoxville to see the Knoxville Cherokees play in the ECHL. I even saw Manome Raiome play a game there for Atlanta. (Probably butchered the spelling).
The best thing about Tennessee was leaving it which I did in late 1993.
