This was before he got badly burned. Our local bull-ring hasted USAC
midgets a few times each season. I drove a push truck for the sprint
cars that ran every Sunday night so I was there for the midgets.

The night I met "Herc" Parlelli Jones, Roger Ward and A.J. Foyt were
there as well. And local lad, Jerry Russel, showed them how it's done.

After the festivities I sat at the table with the travellers (less Roger
Ward) and had a beer or three. Godfrey Daniel - that was 60 years ago or
more. Yikes.

I dunno if Tony Foyt actually did this or not. But it's how I got it
from Allrecipes.
