Check out the way he rolled back then! And the AWESOME "matching" old school lawn chairs! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I remember meeting him with my mom and a bunch of younger girls at the time....my dad and I went up and BS'd with him for about 15 minutes....the girls and my mom were all SILENT! Afterwards my dad and I were joking how silly he looked in shorts....knobby knees and white skin.....the girls were pissed at us for saying so and gushed "THAT was PAUL NEWMAN!" We said we knew....and asked why they never said anything to him.....they all got shy and said they were to embarrassed to to talk to him.... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) They were SO MAD that we DARED to speak to him and they couldn't work up the courage......good times!
