There will be a quiz.

In Response To: There will be a quiz. (Nack Ballard)

Some folks have nicknames. Some really special folks have nacknames. Nack even has a middle name. Nack's one-time roommate Nick Maffeo and somebody referred to as "Mack Ballard" were open division semifinalists at the 1980 World Amateur Backgammon Championships in Las Vegas. Nick, like Nack, is still an active tournament player.

Chicago Point's archive archive of Michael Maxakuli's photographs is a trip down memory lane (for some!). There are photos of Nack in '80, '82, '86 and '87, and some 70's pix of the not Nack Nick and of the aforementioned Chuck Papazian. Of other BGO readers, not many, but there is one of Elliott Winslow, and one of Jake Jacobs, and a couple of the renowned Louisville 1983 Intermediate Division winner (and 1989 World Champion) Joe Russell. Do visit the archive for full-color visions of jolly old St. Nicholas, and the rest.
