Micks Wait In Boston For Poltroon
Sent from my iPhone
McBride 69'ers Dik Ganahl and Steve Schwartz wait for Poltroon at the St. Joseph church in Boston's North End during the Fiesta of St. Joe held on the last weekend of July every year since 1925. Poltroon's exploits were last chronicled 40 years ago in comic strip panels created by Steve Schwartz and displayed in the McBride HS Colonnade newspaper's first floor window display. The alum shared cold ones during their vigil in the church's vestibule at Mary's shrine. While disappointed by Poltroon's absence, the alums' spirits were lifted by the Boston Police Parade Band's rendition of the Chicken Dance. Both agreed 'the outdoor Fiesta is exactly the kind of place you'd expect to find Poltroon.' Who knows, the two alums may become permanent Poltroon pilgrims!
