Since we are on the subject of Joe Montana, maybe we should discuss
some of his antics while in N. O., LA

Sat. Sept. 26, 1992 Approx:  7:00pm
Cats Meow - The corner of Bourbon Street and St. Peter

Smokin' Joe should be called Joe "The Lush" Montana

He is in the bar partying with John Taylor at a 3 for 1 happy hour special.
(For those unfamiliar with this you get 3 drinks for the price of 1)  He is
no sitting and sipping on cocktails, he is slamming beer and shots like
they are going out of style.  He starts dancing and partying buying drinks
for the bar and tipping the bartenders heavily.  Hey Joe way to help
the N. O. economy.  It starts getting late and some of the other 49'ers
(I imagine the playing ones) start to leave.  Its about nine, now.
Well, Joe and John Taylor don't want to go back to the hotel, I mean why
should they? It's not like they are going to play on Sunday night.  They
continue to party in the French Quarter as we meander down to a strip bar.
We begin to drink some more here and Joe starts giving dancers $10's and $20's.
We leave the Quarter around 2am.  Hey Joe do you want to get back to the
hotel?, asks John.  "Hell, no.  You take the limo, I'll take a cab.  See Ya"

Well, now its getting late and we go to a bar in the uptown part of N. O. called
"The F & M Patio Bar".  Joe now is slammed drunk.  We go inside the bar and
continue where we left off.  When people notice Joe is in the bar the women
begin to flock.  Well, Joe is loving life with all these young co-eds all
wanting a piece.  The Lush is now leaning against a pool table in the middle
of the bar with his head bobbing for apples.  He would pop his head up and
awaken for a minute when people would recognize who he was.  When he falls
down in the bar, he is asked to leave the bar.  We catch Joe a cab and send
back to his hotel.  This was about 5am.

At the game Joe was warming up some wide receivers and DB's and was hitting
50 yard pass patterns on a dime.  Well, so much for hangovers.  Hey, if
the guy can drink for almost 10hours and then throw consistent 50yard
passes.  More power to him - he should be in the HOF for just that feat.
Well, I just thought some of the SF fans would like to know what their
hero, Joe "I'm a big LUSH" Montana, was doing while in N. O. away from
Jennifer and his beloved fans.  It's just a good thing he doesn't have
to come back for a while.

This is a first-hand account of my experiences w/ Joe.  I met him in
Cats Meow and then went out with him after.
