      You should update the Wiki entry. It said the contestants start with USD$25 and play USD$5 per time. Appears Copper's dad started with USD$30 and played USD$10 each time. LOL

        Really neat story ..

          I understand your dad. I have never told my son that I met one Prime Minister, drank beer with another and later time met with Gorbachev. Nor that I had coffee with
          h B.B. King either. But that’s another story.

          The real event though was getting Johnny MacKenzie, Johnny Bucyk and Fred Stanfield to sign my colour inserts from *Hockey World * while they were trying to have lunch in the local mall.

                      That's neat.

                          I’m more interested to hear from bach whether Elvis mentioned that B. B. King had coffee with him as well.
