RIP Sid. The Strib can finally run that column they had ready 25 years ago.

Ha!! I imagine they've had to keep re-writing it. Pat makes the most sense for the byline which he got today, but I'm sure Dan B. wrote a version or two a decade or two ago.

Go Gophers!!
 

Pat says it was written 12 years ago.

I'll never forget going to the state fair on Sunday mornings to see his show on WCCO. Long about 2003, I was standing by the Fresh French Fry booth across from the Dairy Building. Walking alone, in a pressed robin's egg blue suit was Sid Hartman, making his way to the radio station. Wish I had taken a photo. The rest of the world in shorts, T-shirts, and flip flops, and Sid looks like he's going to a wedding. And, he is walking himself, he was 83.
