Re: Rusty Staub dies.
RIP Le Grande Orange. Should have been in the Hall. Always remembered his big picture over the Bright Star Bar and Restaurant on Panola.
Re: Rusty Staub dies.
My first sports idol.
He made me a fan of the Astros, the Expos and even, to a lesser extent, the Mets.

Re: Rusty Staub dies.
Rusty Staub played little league (and Babe Ruth) baseball at the same playground I played at in late the 60's, that being Bunny Friend playground in the nint ward.
His picture, along with the rest of his teammates which included 2 of my older cousins, was on the wall in the Bunny Friend concession stand's office. The team was coached by Firmon Simms from NORD.

What makes N.O. great: it names playgrounds "Bunny Friend" and streets after Greek muses and then "localizes" their pronunciation.
