Lou Jacobs about to pass under the net, Jim
Vogelsang headed down the track, Bucky
Dussel passing him with what looks like a stack of cups and saucers and Jonathan "Mitch"
Freddes about to take a seat on the track in front of Ring Three.
FUN FACT: There are more clowns on end track in this photo then there has ever been on the Gold Unit.

And just who is this glamorous young rockstar, you might ask? Eric Carmen of the Raspberries? Paul McCartney and Wings' guitarist, Denny
Laine? Bowie sideman Mick
Ronson? Seals? Croft? Mott? A
Hoople? Some extraneous Bay City Roller? No!
Folks, this is the one and only Mr. Mitch Freddes.
That's right everybody, once upon a time our pal Mitch was a world-class chick magnet.
And don't you forget it!
Guinness World Record holder, John Russell and
Guinness drinker, Mitch
Freddes.
