TONY!!! I've waited over ten years to be able to ask you this. Way back in High School I was making a local video and while we were at a spot in Seattle we ran into a guy by the name of Oli...Oalie...Ol' Lee? Idk, but this guy claimed to have skated against Tony Hawk back in the 80s and beaten him. He can be seen here. It has since become local legend with many being able to recite his claim line for line. I must know, did you in fact skate against this man, and lose? And do you remember him... as Oli? And will you ever skate against him again?

Thanks Tony, and thanks for doing everything you have for skating over the years.

The legend continues! Thanks for putting this one to rest. The city of Oak Harbor is very grateful. Obviously the defeat still stings so I'll leave you be.

I wouldn't worry about that too much. It may have hurt Bill's reputation a bit, but the original series will stand for a long time as a standard for getting kids excited about science. You guys did an amazing job.

As a fellow Mariners fan, do you really want to knwo the answer to that?
