Would be interesting to know what Babe was really like. In my experience, guys who drink as heavily as he reportedly did generally are a little difficult to be around fulltime and sustain relationships with. And combined with his huge ego, Babe was no doubt a difficult guy, despite all the rosy stories about how "fun" and generous he was. I suspect Babe fell somewhere on the spectrum near Jackie Gleason.
So how many balls did Jackie Gleason sign?
