Found this one in the archives. Chicken was having a bummer Fall back in '98. After the Motang Dynasty tour wound down he was back in Gboro, feeling restless. For months he would dust off a tasty sixer, cut the side off the pack, and keep us posted on the comings and goings back home. It was a major event when the mail arrived—did we get a postcard from Chicken? what kind of beer was he drinking?
Checking the mailbox hasn't been the same since…
Now that's what I'm talking about. Hell yeah! Good idea.
ReplyDeleteI think I got like 53 of these in a row. Some nights he would drink more than one sixer, and continue the stories from card to card. It's always such a surprise to remember those were the good times.
