I have a Warren Spahn story. Bill Alsburg who used to run showes in Orange County set up a private signing with Warren. He sat down wrote on a ball his name backwards and said look in the mirrior. He then preceded to talk about baseball. Half way into his telling me about his life story he turns to Bill as asked him if was German. Bill said yes and Warren told him what a great job they did on the Jews. I looked at him like he was out of his mind. He then started to talk about Jackie Robinson and how he ruined baseball. I asked him why and he said the blacks are to good and they made the white man look slow. I then was in total shock when he then said he hated Hank Aaronn more because he did not have the balls to fight back when his teamates called him Nigg. I just left. Bill called me latter and said that Warren was drunk and he did not mean it.
