Coach’s bar seat at Capt Tony’s

His favorite watering hole in Key West.

His seat isn’t the only one. Walter Cronkite and Ernest Hemingway also have personalized seats at Captain Tony’s.

Walter and Ernest are in pretty good company

I am proud to say my *** and Coach Leach's *** have shared the same real estate.

Good morning six pack from Key West. New member but long time lurker. Love the site. Just wanted to provide an update to this post. We had scheduled this trip several months ago but CML's passing made this more important. I stopped by Captain Tony's and took some pictures. You'll notice the seat is not at the bar. According to the bartenders people were trying to steal the seat so they had to hang it on the wall in the pool room. Pretty good company to me. Also I noticed they have a signed MS State helmet hanging by the store. Hope you enjoy the pictures. I was honored to be here at this time and yet a little sad.

Leach sandwiched between JFK and Hemingway is "outstanding."

I think you meant “utterly outstanding”…

Have to paraphrase but it's in one of his numerous videos where he's asked by the journalist what he'd want to be remembered by in his eulogy.

Leach "Oh I don't know, I mean that's gonna be the writer's problem because hell I'll be dead".

Leach has EARNED his right to be recognized with JFK & Hemmingway at that famous Key West Bar. And it's cool as hell his is the one that has to be protected due to the value and neffarious demand.

This was from the day of his passing. They had his chair up on the stage.

I am guessing that's a gin and tonic?

Coach Leach told me there are only two football coaches with stools: Him and Urban Meyer…and Meyer only has one because ML recommended him for a stool. There are also only 3 helmets on the wall: WSU, MSU, and OSU.

I’ll tell my ML story when I have time to type it. It’s a good one…classic ML.
