    Story Time.

    A few years back I was heading out to Jersey. Wife was with me. So we head out, driving, had a few stops we were making along the way, had to stop in Chi, Indy, and a few other places so flying was out of the question.

    We come up on a truck stop just outside the Lehigh Valley. The entire place was abuzz about this broke bald dude living at the truck stop. Evidently he would go around and challenge people to pull up contests and if he won he would demand their ketchup packets to make soup. From what we could gather, this is the recipe:

    -- A tin can
    -- 5-10 Ketchup condiment packets
    -- 1 salt/pepper condiment packet
    -- 1 parmesan cheese packet

    You'd combine the ketchup, salt/pepper, and cheese packets into the tin can, then set it on the warm manifold of a truck. It would make some form of tomato soup. Then the bald dude would disappear, usually mumbling about something called a "Diggity Daggity Doo".

    Absolutely wild stories about the Lehigh Valley

    one of the big things I learned over my gambling/poker career is that you have to eat well and take care of yourself. Totinos pizzas and dollar tacos aren’t going to get that done. Also get some exercise. Even if it’s walking around the casino for 30 minutes. Too many gamblers look like they’re on deaths doorstep.

    I usually pace around the casino after I blow a bunch of rails or hammer 100 Red Bull/Vodka’s. You are correct.
