I bought that bottle and arranged to interview George in an elaborate plot to establish an alibi for me for the evening because I had been informed that there was to be a robbery that night and I could very well be accused if I couldn't prove my whereabouts somewhere else for that evening and early morning. I was told this by the two Hells Angles brothers that I had saved in a knife fight, my only act of heroism my entire life. They owed me so they were kind enough to tell me to cover my ass. That's when the Alfred Hitchcok twisted ending swirled in my brain and the simple robbery became a twisted plot, clever and successful both financially and with diabolical revenge. I reserve the right to tell the entire, unembellished, totally factual account of how this photograph came to be la cause de celebration of my best circus story.( Powód świętowania, the story of this celebration in Polish would be more accurate because of the unique Polish twist with Zieswa Acrombovitch #85.)
I believe this story should only be told with a bottle of single malt Bunnahabhain in a quiet dark place certainly not in NYC.
All of the above is based on fact. The only lie in the photograph is the bottle of whiskey. George Bruno was certainly not known for his drinking. Drinking and Breakaway Sway polls do not go together (except maybe for that crazy Japanese guy, but that's another story for another time.)
