My son's neckname for many is Beano.
Never met Wolf, of course, but you made me love him and miss the hell out of him, Herb. Glad you and your wife had the pleasure and made something special out of it. I was wondering about that money jar (at around 1:04). Now I suppose I have the answer.
Thanks for the really nice comments. I think you meant 1:40. That was Wolf's wife Suzi and Ricky. Another good friend of ours. Ricky passed away several years ago as well. Sepsis from some other medical issues.

That was a gate charge to get in. Wolf put on a big feed on Saturday night. In addition to all the music there was generally a feast of some sort. Could be anything from a brisket to a whole hog on the grill or in the ground and fixings. There were several porta potties onsite that were kept clean and serviced. That fee helped offset the costs of the event.

I remember a couple of fundraisers for one or more of our friends through the years.
