Opened up what I think is the first store dedicated exclusively to the Raiders in 1987, 5 years after they had left, first one was in Castro Valley and eventually Fremont, Pleasant Hill followed. Remembered one of his boys played football, basketball and baseball at O'Dowd and eventually went to Stanford.
