Old Man

With the passing of Richard "Old Man" Harrison on June 25th, my bucket list will never be
complete.
In previous blog entries, you can see that I was able to meet Rick, Corey, Chum, Antoine, and even "The Beard Of Knowledge". I'd always hoped to meet the Old Man on a future Las Vegas visit, but I'll at least have memories of all the times he made me laugh while watching Pawn Stars. His interactions with Chumlee were classic. When I visited with Chumlee last October, he was late for the event and someone called him on it. His response? "Old Man ain't here, so I can't be late."
Even with all the animosity between them on TV, even Cum has an empty space in his heart right now. Rest In Peace, Old Man!
