Book Cover & Preview Text
“Crocker, you got the balls to step outside ‘cause I don’t want to smash anything up in this store and then have to pay for it.”
Crocker ripped off his tattered brown apron and headed for the door. No one had ever challenged him in his store. Outside, Crocker put up his fists in the extended fashion of the early 1900’s. Joey looked at him and smiled. As they went around in a circle a few times, Joey charged.
With extended fists, Crocker hit Joey in the face, but the hit did not have much of a punch because of the extended arms. Taking the first hit, Joey blasted Crocker in the face, with his fist held back close to his chest. Crocker knocked back charge Joey and put him in a headlock to stop his punches. With his head under Crocker’s armpit, Joey went to work on Crocker’s lower body. Crocker was delivering many blows to Joey’s back but was doing little damage. A crowd had formed, cheering Joey on.
Some of the women watching the fight had disappeared into the store and items from the shelves were finding their way under the women’s dresses. The women knew they had been cheated for years, and this was a rare chance to get something back. When they returned to the fight, they cheered Joey on to kick Crocker’s ass. This also gave others time to help themselves in the store. Finally Joey, getting a little tired, stood erect and blasted Crocker in the face until Crocker dropped to the ground. The crowd roared with excitement. They had a new hero.
