re: Talked to "the toughest LSU player of all time" today

A good friend was an EBP Sheriff's Deputy back in Cantrell's days & he said that whenever the Sheriff's station on Highland would get a call about Cantrell raising hell again, the first call would go to the other stations asking for backup. Cantrell was loaded around 1pm one midwk day & raising hell with a pinball machine when the bar called the S.O. My friend was new to this experience & went in first, without waiting for backup. And my friend was 6'5 300 (John Candy type body)& used to intimidating civilians. As he got half way in the bar, Cantrell saw him coming, picked up the pin ball machine, swung it around, and charged my friend with it. At the end of the day, it took 6 deputies to bring him down. Hands down, no contest. Cantrell was just mean, period.
