    Right...I found that one too....but it reminded me of Joe being a "greeter" at the Casino's later on.

    Uh No, but I made that up. Unfortunately, it is too believable.

    Why you think it might be fake? Anyway was there a lot of white people living in Harlem back then or was it a exclusive black crowd that gave the parade?
