I am friends with the kid in the jersey in front of him. Piece of advice, if you think you have a tough life, this guy is the most amazing inspirational story you can find.

Please tell.
 
Wow that is an incredible story, thanks for sharing.

The best part about him is he is the most average, mild mannered guy you would ever want to meet. The first time I saw him hit a golf ball I literally could not move for about 10 seconds. If you get a chance, watch some of his videos. Just amazing how non chalant he is for having no arms or legs and how successful he has become in life. Plus he is a syracuse grad. I see John (or JR as I call him) every July at a member guest I play in and I can honestly say I walk away from that weekend with a certain freshness about life and how to handle obstacles.

Get off your knees The John Robinson Story

Here's another good video on John

I lived on Sadler 1 my freshman year ('87-'88), I believe it was John's sophomore year, we were on the same floor. I remember him as being a great guy. He drove an early '80s sedan that was specially equipped. He even played on our intramural floor hockey team as the goalie and he wasn't bad (can't say that for the rest of our team).

He had a really nice dorm room too!
 
Btw, am I the only one who thinks it is high time that Adult World got it's due on the big screen?
 
Would love to know what game that picture was taken at.

My Sherlock Holmes ability can only tell me that it was most likely a September football game.

Kid is wearing a football jersey and woman has shorts on behind him. I should be a private eye!
 
I met Dennis through his ex wife, who I knew in grad school. Nice guy. I think his knees caused his early retirement. As an FYI, he was a witness to a murder in NOLA during the 1987 Final Four. Had to go back at least once to testify.
