Tonight we were blessed by the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Murphy, residents of Portland, Oregon and graduates of Washington State University. They've been here before and modestly enjoyed our ambiance and beef brisket. But tonight they revealed their true identity when they saw a signed Joe Rudi baseball in our display case. Turns out the the Murphys are parents to Dale Murphy, 2-time National League MVP and beloved superstar of the Atlanta Braves. Dale is destined for the Hall of Fame and will always be remembered for his work ethic and dedication to the game. Besides, he is one of the truly good guys of professional sports. Today he heads up a foundation to deter young athletes from steroids. The Murphys promised a signed baseball from Dale to grace our front counter and in the process made John a very happy little kid again. Thanks to all the Murphy's and we look forward to you classin' up our joint in the near future!
