So, I guess what I am saying is that I have a soft spot in my heart for pro wrestlers.
Four members of the WWE Hall of Fame graduated from my high school. Perfect” Henning, Ravishing Rick Rude, The Berzerker, Nikita Koloff, and Smash, among many others. It’s kind of freakish, actually, but my high school counts among its alumni Vern Gagne, Mad Dog Vachon, The Crusher, Larry “Pretty Boy” Henning and his son Curt “Mr. It also produced an Academy Award-winning screenwriter, Barry Morrow, who wrote Rain Man (1988), and, for some odd reason, an unusually large number of professional wrestlers. You know, the kind of people who keep the country operating on a daily basis. Over the course of its existence, RHS produced a huge number of mill workers, beauticians, bus drivers, cops, soldiers, plumbers, and nurses. But, hey, Ed, thanks for thinking of me.” And then I went upstairs to the bedroom I shared with my two brothers, nursing yet another stomach ache, and thought to myself: “I have got to get out of here.” I can’t really take time out to burglarize a church. “Because they’ve got a lot of good shit in there-TVs, silver plates, stuff like that,” Rob replied. “Why do you want to rob Sacred Heart?” I asked.
What do you mean “hit” the church? I asked. One night, in 10th grade, my friend Ed called me up and asked if I wanted to join him and Dave to “hit” Sacred Heart Church down the street from us. And the two brothers across the alley from me ran craps games in their basement on the nights their parents went out drinking. The kid next door, Justin, who had been one of my best friends in elementary school, was doing heroin by 8th grade. They didn’t have room for ninth graders, or the school would have easily had more than 3,000 students.įor most of the three years I spent there, I had stomach aches from anxiety, mainly due to my classmates. There were 2,500 students when I was there for grades 10-12. My high school, Robbinsdale High, was a drab school that looked like a factory and was set in a working-class neighborhood by Northside Minneapolis.
