During the Fitch and Cobb eras, A&F rode on its association with elites, as they outfitted everyone from presidents to pioneers. They sold stuff to Teddy Roosevelt, Charles Lindbergh, and Ernest Hemmingway (who killed himself with an A&F gun)
Right pic is Lindbergh's A&F jacket
@Vitamin_K_2@DanRafael1 There were only 4 of the first 10 rounds that were the same on all 3 cards. I too saw Bud winning maybe 6-4 going into 11th, but there were many rounds where he edged it, rather than dominated, and I could see it being anywhere from 4-6 to 8-2 at that point.
@JayLison3@DanRafael1 I loved watching how differently Bud fought in the last minute of a round if he thought he had lost it or it was close… and he thought that of a few rounds. I think he probably had himself up 6-5 or 7-4 going into final round, that’s how he fought it. And he was right
Took a friend’s ticket for the Sixers tonight (pickleball night!). I could walk to Chinatown in the time it’ll take me to get to stadiumland by SEPTA, and there is nowhere non-terrible to meet before game.
The hope of something better makes the status quo seem that much worse.
