It's 1978. Terry is 18, graduating from Sandusky Perkins High School, guessing weights at Cedar Point, and marching down the ramp as an alternate in The Best Damn Band in the Land — during Woody Hayes' final, infamous season. Jeremy is five years old at 281 Church Street in Shreve, Ohio, in a house with five boys, a rusted Fiat you could see the road through, and — for a few days — a wanted bank robber named Louie Stackhouse sleeping under the same roof. This episode has it all: the Blizzard of '78 (and the nine-hour drive to Maryland that Terry's mom sent him on to get him out of the house), Santa landing on the roof of the bank in downtown Wooster, getting lost at SeaWorld Ohio, a kid brother left behind at Jerry's Restaurant, a 14-year-old's first driving lesson that ends in a totaled VW Beetle — and the night little Jeremy pulled back the curtain and saw the blue lights: "We have you surrounded. Come out with your hands up." If you grew up in Wayne County, Sandusky, or anywhere in Ohio in the late '70s, this one's for you. Drop a comment if you remember Fisher's Big Wheel, Buckeye Mart, Shogun Warriors, or Santa on the bank roof in Wooster.
