Freeze Frame

What makes me laugh is that I had this photo in my own scrapbook, it’s printed in our senior yearbook, and someone else recently sent me her copy. All three photos have different perspectives, so that means when these guys gathered in one spot--all those biceps and stomachs and legs and sunglasses--at least three people whipped out cameras and starting snapping.

Is it too much to say that the boys of 86 inspired the paparazzi of 86? That so much budding manliness in one place demanded that we capture the moment?

The guys in this picture are Kevin Hollingshead, Matt Pequet, Doug Dicke, Robert King, Tim Dennis, Jake Tedesco, Joe Bihlmeyer, and Ty Smith. We have addresses for all but two of them, Ty and Robert.

Robert, Ty: where are you? We want to recreate this magical moment, this harvest of testosterone, on June 10 in Slidell. Please don’t break my heart just because you can.
