But, um, Wayne Ritchie was this, he was a guard at Alcatraz for a while.
And he had gone to a Christmas party at the post office there in San Francisco, just for, you know, he was a U.S.
And that night he was drinking, you know, some of the punch at this party.
And he started feeling very strange.
The room started spinning around him.
He ended up going upstairs to where his locker was and getting his things.
And he wound up going home because he didn't know what was going on.
When he got home, his girlfriend was upset at him.
You know, I'm not happy here.
And so when he's in this fog, he decides, I know how to set my life on track.
I'm going to grab a couple of my service revolver revolvers.
I'm going to go to a bar downtown.
I'm going to rob it and I'm going to give the money to my girlfriend so she can go to New York and she'll be happy.
