  2. You mean "Big Daddy" - lots of great info Mr. X. Thanks !

    My first introduction to Roth was when I was 9-years old. Daytona Beach, Florida.
    I was on vacation with my parents, sister, cousins, aunts and uncles - 1971. Even though there were a dozen bikers hanging out in front, I made my dad take me into The Purple Banana - (looking back - it was a head shop) black-light posters, strange incense, weird pipes in a display case and yes, Rat Fink emblazed upon a surfboard. I was hooked ever since.
