Story 143
Bob Costas - A few years back I was vacationing with friends in Indianapolis during a sporting event weekend. A late, late Friday night had us dining in the only local restaurant still open at that hour, and it was packed with late night crazy folk. Our booth was next to Bob Costas' booth, and we watched the parade of bystanders, some who sheepishly approached him, while others rudely interrupted him and his female dining partner. After one such long-standing and long-winded visitor, my friend got up and physically escorted the rambling person away, imitating a bodyguard, and then returned to his seat. Bob then says loud enough for most in the area to hear, but to no one specifically, "There are still some decent people who do the right thing." I replied aloud, "Yeah? But he thought you were Marv Albert," to which Bob answers immediately, "Better him than a Federal magistrate" (this was right after Marv's biting incident).
