Also this fucker said he went to A LOT of basketball camps growing up yet his mom couldn't afford good bread? I doubt Pistol Pete camps were free

I'm sick and tired of Opie complaining that Arnold White Bread was an indicator of how poor his family was. I grew up on Long Island too, and that shit is EXPENSIVE. http://www.peapod.com/itemDetailView.jhtml?productId=36261&NUM=1412707939055 http://arnoldbread.com/products/sliced-breads/specialty/brick-oven-premium-white

I don't not believe him because of the money part, I just don't believe him because every time Pistol Pete came up over the years he mentioned the cancelled check with his signature and never mentioned the shoot-around story until Sizemore.

I wish he got shot by Pistol Pete.

That he had a shoot around with Pistol Pete as the sun came up? This dude woke up that early and went to go shoot around at sunrise for "maybe a half an hour" and was teaching Opie how to shoot?

Totally believable, like all the other stories about armed guards at his youth basketball games.

He was mistaken. It was Concho Pete.

bobby orr played pond hockey with me

I buy it that his dad and Pete's dad had a "Cheever letters" relationship. "Pen pals"

lol

His parents didn't have a mortgage. It's complete bullshit that he grew up poor. The truth is that the Hughes are all cheap fucks and its absurd that the Opester never moved his elderly parents off the busy death road they lived on.

I fuckin' believe him. He worked for the fuckin' mob or sumthin'. tsss

Yes in the same way that John Calipari coached me

(He signed autographs for 5 minutes and gave a 10 minute speech to a group of 200 kids)

You don't have to be rich to go to basketball camp. Normally they're either free or very affordable and if you already play on a team sometimes the whole team goes. There's a lot of broke kids coming up in awful situations that play basketball. It's by no means a rich man's sport nor is it unusual for players in the league to have sponsored camps during the summer or there alma mater runs it and they volunteer there time. Growing up in North Carolina I remember guys like Michael Jordan even had basketball camps and Michael Jordan would show up. It's really not out of the realm of possibility that he met and shot around with pistol Pete especially if he went to one of his camps.

Sure. Mostly because I give no fucks and don't arbitrarily decide Opie is lying constantly.

more mic time = more lies for the Opester.
