dc oldtimer Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Ha, I thought I was the only one who called them that! LOL. No you are not. The first time they came out in practice '76 someone yelled "What's up with the F'n pickles?" The rest is history. Now everytime I look at them, I just don't see a plume. I will always see a pickle. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now everytime I look at them, I just don't see a plume. I will always see a pickle. :) Same here. "In honor of our corporate sponsor, Vlasic, . . ." Every time I teased Mike about the "pickle" flag, he retorted indignantly, "They are not pickles, they're plumes!" (Honestly, the first time I saw those flags, I had no idea they were plumes till he told me.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc oldtimer Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Is this a photo of Jeff in 77? Yep. That is him. I'll try to find one of him in CAC888. I am pretty sure those are my knees off his left ear. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindap Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Yep. That is him. I'll try to find one of him in CAC888. I am pretty sure those are my knees off his left ear. :) Thank you so much. I'd like photos of CAC888 and you're the 'bees knees'. You can PM me if you wish; I'm on vacation; might be offline for a while. OT yesterday I attended a festival for 7 hours. A singer and her band from Seattle played at our place for the first time. Half way in the set, she sat on her chair, guitar in hand and sang 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow'. It was sweet! I savoured the moment and felt whimsical. Thanks again :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
