I still remember the first time I met Thomas "Kong" Kelly...
Years ago, Tina, Shahir, Muja, and I were our own little crew. It was a strange foursome, but we were mostly unfuckwithable. We ventured to the Country Bar one sleepy Sunday to find ourself surrounded by the cheapest of drinks and the worst of karaoke. We had considered leaving, if only to get the smell of fried food off of our clothes and the ringing of "Sweet Home Alabama" out of our ears, when Big Kong filled the door frame.
He joined our table, and the two-for-one's flowed like the mighty Mississippi. Since our meeting, he had always greeted me with a smile and a hug. He was a funny, strong, intimidating teddy bear of a man that will be greatly missed by any and all fortunate enough to have crossed his path.
There is a Kong shaped hole in Minnesota.
