As soon as I was 16 in 1969, I started working as a Jerk on the Fountain at the People's in Montgomery Mall Bethesda, MD. Minimum wage was $1.60, but working the Fountain got you in a tips pool that added 10 or 20 cents. I eventually moved to working more generally throughout the store. I was reminded of those days on Thursday as John Madden received special recognition/tribute. Behind the drug counter at that People's was where I watched the Immaculate Reception, along with the store's assistant manager, a huge Pittsburgh fan. "If it wasn't a catch before the huddle, how did it become a catch during the huddle?"
