He was a true historian regularly providing details of regular season and playoff games, as well as, individual player stats to settle disagreements between fans or just for the love of the game.

Throughout his teen years, Bobby became fascinated with music, and he was particularly drawn to the King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley.
