fun fact: one of tom dempsy's shoes is hanging from the ceiling of the absinthe house bar on bienville and bourbon.
my wife used to bartend there and every time i would stop in to say hi to her i would find myself staring at that relic from my childhood.
i know when mr tony sold the biz to jobert some one took down a bunch of the helmets from the ceiling and replaced them with replicas.
there was no replica for mr dempsy's shoe so it went back up.
one more fun fact: the heirs to the spainards who owened that property during spanish colony times still get a roality check once a year for the use of their property.

Fun footwear facts indeed! After Sacred Hart-ley goes 4-4 tonight into a swirling Candlestick wind, I plan a toast to Dempsey's hanging shoe at that very spot.
from your lips to buddy d. and ashley's ears.
