those parlay cards that came out of the 80s and were everywhere..work..school etc
there was a old man ramp agent I knew...he worked for the now defunct Pan Am Airlines..I swear all he did all day tues-fri was pass out those cards and throw a couple pieces of luggage in between..he even had a piece of pan am equiptment..a belt loader (they are fast..driveable ramp you throw suitcases on when loading narrow body airplanes or hole 5 of wide bodies) that he would use to drive all over the airport aircraft operating area in search of players and money..I hid from Ole Hueston Bob on more than one occaison until I hade his $
Anyway I would venture into the Pan Am lockeroom ( I worked for another company) and grab a bunch of cards where ole hueston bob would leave them for people to take
like those souvenier shops that have attraction brochures ..except they were football parlay cards
then I would pass them out among friends and tell them I would give them to the bookie..well I was booking them myself and praying no mfer ever hit..sure enough some sad sack hits a 4 teamer 4 50 beans and I did not even have ten cents in my pocket..it paid 500..and I had already spent his 50 living it up all weekend..
well I trickled it back to him..but he ****ed up my gig
Well 25 years later I would hope I have matured enough to never do this again..at least today I could cover the plays..Unless some SOB hit a ten teamer for like 50 bucks-SS
