Randy Flores - Former MLB player; Cardinals pitcher who won a ring with them. He went on to do bigger things and is now the lead scout for the Cards.

Connection to me: was my interim school teacher in middle school. He was doing teaching as a side thing while he was in the minors. Went on to the MLB during my time there.

Jim Arrelanes - played college football and went on to play in the XFL.

Connection: former school sub too. Did various subs around the school district I was in.

A good amount actually, but I’ll start with :ai:

breh had such a bad reputation but he’s such a genuinely good person at his core

I used to go to school with lil Deuce his son, this is like first grade, AI would come and pick him up and just hang with us sometimes. He’d read to us, crack jokes, shyt he’d take a nap in the back of the room sometimes and just get cozy

he used to call me young Adonis would always be hypin you up

Philly legend

AI is cool as fukk in person
