Party tricks

Kelly's friend Mike Moss sent me some stories of the various party tricks and quirks that Kelly was infamous for.  In no particular order:


  • Theme ends in curling, only in-turns or out-turns or take outs or ... eyes closed.  Kelly apparently made a last rock hit and stay for 3 or 4 to win in a game club he skipped.
  • Elevator parties at the Holiday Inn.  You had to ride the elevator until you finished your beer, then you could get off ... provided you were wearing a hat.
  • Balancing a curling broom by the handle on your nose.  
  • Ordering drinks from the bar and having them delivered down on the ice during a game.
  • Beatles only on the car radio, so you had to be really quick swapping the tapes over.
