Oscar was not into serious street-fighting, but he was hell on wheels in a bar brawl. Any combination of a 250 lb [113 kg] Mexican and LSD-25 is a potentially terminal menace for anything it can reach - but when the alleged Mexican is in fact a profoundly angry Chicano lawyer with no fear at all of anything that walks on less than three legs and a de facto suicidal conviction that he will die at the age of 33 - just like Jesus Christ - you have a serious piece of work on your hands. Especially if the bastard is already 33 1/2 years old with a head full of Sandoz acid, a loaded .357 Magnum in his belt, a hatchet-wielding Chicano bodyguard on his elbow at all times, and a disconcerting habit of projectile vomiting geysers of pure blood off the front porch every 30 or 40 minutes, or whenever his malignant ulcer can’t handle any more raw tequila. —Hunter S. Thompson, Rolling Stone #254, Dec. 15, 1977 Oscar Zeta Acosta - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

When I first read this in our local weekly reader I was stunned. Reading it again stuns me just as much.

Overheard in the bleachers As Fresno State was running away with the game in the middle innings, an impartial fan in lower Section E turned to the guy next to him and said, “I love it when the little guys come in and beat the big guys.” A second later he said, “Except for Appalachian State.” And then he adjusted his Michigan hat. Fresno State is Rocking the CWS!
