thanks all credit to Carl.  ah Paul, indeed  i do...my older daughter
and i went to college in Providence. i got to experience the   final
glory days of "Nasty Gasket" from 77-81, and she got to see the 2nd
coming from 2008-2012.  (as per the comment at the end), i recall
knocking a gasket or gaskets down at  a football game or two while
Buddy Cianci, the colorful mayor of Providence would guzzle from his
flask, earning the cheers of the crowd.
