Meet Stevie D

As we get closer to our trip to Myrtle, let me introduce you to one of our two new guys this year.

Stevie Dickerson is a native of Pearisburg, VA though he has lived in Blacksburg for about 25 years.  He has been a regular on Chicken Hill for tailgates and traveled to bowl games with the crew since the early 90's.  We've been trying to get him to Myrtle for a number of years and we finally have succeeded.

For those that remember the old Marriott in Blacksburg, Stevie was a regular for many years when it was the disco capital of SW Virginia.  So much so, when Stevie got married, the place closed  down.

Marriage also ruined the best golfer in his family.  His wife Tina could out drive any of us and the birth of their first daughter, Ashley, ended any hopes of Kevin and Tom of winning the Hokie Club captain's choice tournament.  Comparing Stevie and Tina off the tee.  When they played golf, if Tina wasn't playing from the white tees, it went like this....  Stevie tees off.  They drive to the red tees.  Stevie walks back 10 yards and hits his second shot.  Then Tina tees off.

Stevie works at Celanese in Pearisburg.  He and Tina have a second daughter, Sierra, who started college this year.  Their daughter Ashley has a year or so left at Radford University.

Join us in welcoming Stevie, and we will introduce you to our other newbie, Riley Young soon.
