Appears we may have known some of the same people.
My Arrington story: Fall '84, school just started & I had just made the 12th Man Kickoff Team. Went to Zephyr's w/a few of the original 12th Man guys. We're in line to get in behind Arrington, Haney, couple of other baseball guys. They had a "bouncer", a big 'roid eating Pike. Even some of the Pike's I knew didn't like him.
Anyway, Arrington was a smart ass(remember his junk grabbin' in '85 after he threw way inside to a tu batter?), and he said something to the "bouncer" & b/f anyone could react, he popped Tom's head back w/a punch right in the nose. We were stunned that the baseball players didn't do a damn thing.
Next night, they're back, as are we. Except Beje' Mahoe, our Hawaiian closer, was w/them. And he beat that bouncers ass.
He sent us several kids over the years, would be interesting to see what he could do.
