[Rhodes22-list] Stars & Stripes

[David Bradley]

I was looking for that info but I couldn't find a definitive answer.
I remember in '91 he lost - a client of mine was one of his sponsors
and I got to hang around with the team and sponsors in San Diego.
Have a distinct memory of him packing away the vodka tonics.  Not that
there's anything wrong with that.
