I live 2 hours north of Tuscaloosa, AL. In February 1970 I drove to Tuscaloosa and saw Pete put up 69 points against Alabama (in a game LSU lost 106-104 in overtime). Pete flipped off the Alabama crowd on his way off the court - he became my hero that day!...

It is close to the Whistling Straits golf course where they played the PGA Championship last A...
