There is a great story that when Fats was 22 he was bundled into the back of a car and taken to Al Capone's birthday party to provide the music..........He apparently played non stop for three days and eventually left very drunk and very rich....He was getting thousands of dollars in tips........If those walls could talk.

Nothin wrong with big feet! I have to buy two pairs of boots at a time - throw away the merchandise and wear the boxes. Damn...

I think Fats died at 38. Too young.

Strangest place I ever heard this was at my neighbors funeral. You just couldn't be sad after hearing that.

I love that song. First time I ever heard it. Quite entertaining

That's what she said.
