I usually put silly notes in here to amuse a few old friends. This time, I could not be more serious. I don’t know the people that take time to write a few of their memories, but I have always suspected that Robert “Bob” Treat is one of the authors. If you knew Bob then I am sad to say that he passed away on June 3rd of this year.
This link if it is still working may supply those who knew Bob with information.

I worked with Bob in the mid 70’s when he was an assistant at UA to Roger Cherry. Bob would later manage a theater in the Orange County area. He very much enjoyed his work and the people he worked with.

No listing from Coatboy in nearly 2 years. That is like pushing the mute button on Solomon. Coatboy tell us you have not forsaken us.

My 1st day of work, and there I was with Benji, Bambi, the 3 Musketeers and the Towering Inferno. Wave upon wave of the humanoids thrown at me with their popcorn boxes and empty coke cups. I was drowing in a sea of humanity, but as I was going down for my last gasp I was rescued by the usher who stood above all. It was the fearless COATBOY. I think others should share their stories of the legend of the UA, the legend of COATBOY.

Dear Coatboy:
It has been over a year since we last heard from you. What has happened? You have not forsaken us when we need you most have you?
For those of you that are not familiar with the legend of COATBOY, he was the finest usher to ever wear the blue blazer. In the mid 1970’s the crowds were not coming to see Benji, and Bambi. They came in masses to see the man amongst men, the royalty of UA Del Amo, they came to see COATBOY….but alas he is silent. —-I pause to weep.—-Bubtorp

Dear Coatboy: I think I know who you are, so let me take a guess that your initials are P.E. —— You did a fine job and we were all the better for your services. Let me also add that the blue blazer was so sharp looking that I chose to wear that at my wedding, which was just a few years ago. I kept it locked up these many years from when we ushered the sacred halls. My wife went with the traditional white dress when I was trying to get her to wear one of those beautiful blue dresses with the reddish stripe worn by the lovely Cashiers. Adios Coatboy.

I went and registered just to say this, Perry’s Pizza in the 70’s was simply the best. I worked at the theater in the mid to late 70’s. I would love to guess the identity of Manwithnoname by using his initials, but would only do so with his consent. As to other comments made here, I have similar emotions about seeing old haunts torn down is very sad. Oh well, part of growing older I guess. Adios UA.
