Anybody know who this is? that's me with roller pigeon hat on.. he sent me an email saying he is visiting family here about 25 minutes from where I live and heard I had rollers and would like to visit .I didn't know who he was but email him back saying I was working construction at the moment in my land and my birds are in lock down and the BOP left me with only ten so I wouldn't be able to entertain him with the sky but that he was more than welcome to come by and talk birds..well I was glad he did we found out we had more than birds in common we both came from the same neighborhood in the South Bronx his sister use to go to high school with me .another thing we had in common he left to the military at the age of 17. I think he serve 23 years and I serve 36 yrs fighting my wars in The South Bronx.lol.. we had a great time and I was glad to meet a roller man my first since getting into rollers. a very nice gentleman .

Hey Ralph,
That's Dan Galarazza, one of the nicest guys in the sport, and a friend of mine. I'm sure you had a great time, he's always a pleasure to talk birds with.

I met Dan in the NC Convention and he was real nice gentleman. I saw him again in the Texas convention and also enjoyed his friendship there. He is a very nice guy.

Small world Ralph. It sounds like you guys had a great time. I'm glad you were finally able to get another Roller man out your way. I know Hector C. tried to get with you when he was visiting PR. Hopefully I can take a trip out your way in the near future and see some spinners in action.
