We of the rather casual bent here at Unfair Park have some hoity-toity contacts in the world of seeing and being seen. And don’t even try, because these sources will remain nameless so as to protect their scandalously aloof (yet observing) roll in the scene ... for our sake, naturally.
As in, the swanky sushi spot Kenichi saw its share of superstars last weekend. Chris Rock made an appearance. Ja Rule rubbed elbows with Dallas’ beautiful peeps. Three Dallas Cowboys were hulking, but relatively cool cucumbers. Even the diminutive Michael Johnson, Skyline grad and multiple Olympic gold medalist, was a patron of the Victory Park sushi-tery.
Now, of all those names and all those sizes, take a gander at who gave one of the most good-natured (yet firm) bouncers the most attitude when it came time to leave come 2 a.m.? Let’s just say if you guess correctly, we’ll give you a gold medal. --Merritt Martin
