RIP Arnie. A true legend.
Good Arnie story.
Good Arnie story.

One of my favorite stories (it is truly impossible to narrow this list down only a few) was the 1960 Hockock Belt, an award given to the best athlete of the year. At the time, no one in sports were bigger than the New York Yankees. Famous Yankee right fielder Roger Maris, a little tipsy at the presentation, looked Arnold Palmer’s way before the presentation and said, “Are you in this Hickock Belt thing? What the f*** are you doing here?” Arnold’s reply was nothing. Knowing the type of man Maris was from stories, I can’t imagine the remarks were sarcastic in nature.
But when the announcement came, “Okay, the winner of the 1960 Hickock Belt, is golfer Arnold Palmer,” Roger Maris happened to be close to Arnold. Arnold looked at him. “What the f*** are you doing here?” Arnold said. Maris said nothing.
