I Turned Dick Lyon's $13 into $2,200 in Vegas!

One of my favorite memories was when I went with KFXM DJ, Dick Lyons to Vegas for the weekend. We got a room at the Rivera Hotel. We spent the evening gambling and watching Shecky Green, the comedian in the lounge. To say the least, Shecky Green was a riot! By the time I retired back up in the room, I was dead broke. But what I found on the nightstand was $13.00 that Dick had left there before he went off to dreamland. I "borrowed" the 13 bucks and went back downstairs and gambled with it. Well, I hit a "streak of luck" and turned that small $13 stake into $2,200 ! ! ! The next morning I treated Dick to steak and eggs to show my appreciation for the "loan" he had given me ! ! !
