And that was the first real bust.

Actually, the first real bust happened in seventh grade at Culver Junior High.

Um, I left Hillel Hebrew Academy sixth grade and this kid stole my Pac-Man hat, which I got from my AYSO soccer team and Pac-Man had just come out and his two friends threw me in the trash can and everything.

Anyway, I grabbed one of my dad's guns and I got my hat back the next day.
