So he led me over to the table and he says have a seat. The old man looked at me and he said do you know who I am. I said no. He said I'm rocky Graziano did you ever hear of me. At that time I was only 19 years old so I did not hear of rocky Graziano and I apologize to him.

yes you are right NV. .if I think about it now I wish I would have known him so I could ask him about his fights with Tony zale.
