Les Leach – International Man of Mystery , Yatzee Champion, and all around great guy. First and foremost, he wouldn’t let us comp him entry. Les rode an inspired race, finishing up 7th place in the elite class, commenting, “I lead Eatough for a few feet, and then he went away…” After the prizes were handed out, Les walked over to me and stuffed something in my pocket. I thought it was a piece of trash perhaps a doughnut napkin or something. I went to pull it out and it was Les’s prize envelop unopened, cash filled. I said, “hey Les what’s this?” he said, “dude this race was great, thanks for everything the course was awesome. This was just a great day, I already got my prize.” Or something like that. I said, “dude, take your prize, you won’t let me comp your entru, you won’t take a prize, what’s with you man!” Threatened with wrestling with Spot Paul, Les finally took his prize, but promised to purchase a deluxe edition of Yatzee for L-Web’s going away party next week. Les Leach, who already had a special place in my hall of heros, gets my unending respect. Classiest, Nicest, Coolest guy out there.
