Autorenporträt
Author Lloyd Rutzky became a seat vendor, selling soda pop at Comiskey Park at Thirty-Fifth Street and Shields Avenue in 1965, and he continued hawking pizza, hot dogs, and beer for the "Pale Hose" throughout the 1970s and 1980s, after their move to their newer location across the street in 1991, and up to the present day. Joel Levin, a fellow vendor who had a 15-year career at Comiskey Park from 1962 to 1977, had the idea for this book, and together with Rutzky, they chronicle their brothers and sisters in arms--and feet--including dozens of legends of the profession who are highly skilled in providing refreshments and souvenirs for what is known as White Sox Nation.
