I met Chuck Knox during my stint as a room service attendant at the Anaheim Marriott when he got rehired.
I've told this story like 10x on ROD but for this day i will repeat it for an eleventh and final time
I had a mid-shift position which was after the breakfast rush and before dinner - and it's not lunch cause everyone in he hotel is gone - so all you basiclaly did was deliver fruit baskets to rooms and restock bars.
Well I had gotten the ticket with the name Knox to restock his bar. When i went in he wasnt there but I saw he had a Seahawks lighter, so being a die-hard Ram fan I liberated it from his possession. I showed it to my other buddy Chris who i thinkwas the only other Ram fan in OC at the time and we sparkes that thing until it died.
But i actually met him!
A few days later I got another ticket for a club samdwich or whatever marked Knox - this time he was in the room and I welcomed him back to the Rams and explained how much I loved my team. He was the over it. He just wanted to sign the check and fet me out. Now i was in a pot fueled haze full-time back in the 80's 90's etx them but I recall telling Coach Knox to draft one of the Rocker brothers with the second round pick - but he went and drafted Isaac Bruce like a numbskull - to this day I ask mysef what could have been
RIP COACH KNOX
