The notorious "Tesh Monster" who prophetically shit on the walls was none other than a guy named Tony T from PE. We were the unhappy recipients of the tesh cleaning duties because we,(service),were the closest dept. to it.

Hi All....
I got my first job at "Crazy Eddies", fresh off the boat from Israel in 1984..What a blast that was!!
Its me, Eli Freedman, from the Video Department, where I worked with, to name a few, Gary Norman, Richard Ilse, Mark,(The SKUNK) Rob Issow and too many others that I cant recall..I remember, Harold, Bobby, Hans (OF COURSE!!) Mauro, Jeff..Was really incredible fun....People were great and was a real eye opener in retail sales..I moved on from there to, The Wiz and managed Rodneys Video Warehouse for awhile....
Left N.Y. for Canada in 1996....and in 2008, arrived, with my Harley, in Israel.....See if I can acclimate after so many years..
Great that there is a web site for some GREAT memories..
All the best to you all and those that remember the FUN!!
Take care,
Eli Freedman

Ha!
Eli! Great to hear that you are well !!!!!!
All the best to you !!!
Hans

Hi Eli,

I worked in the Brooklyn, NY store PT from
1982-1984. I do not remember you. I wish you the best.

Hans!!
Wow, hard to believe after ALL these years....Saw you on your webpage..looking Great!!
I actually read about you some years ago, in Newsweek, I think, about your Japanese Tattoos!!
Been here in Israel for 2 months, shipped over my Harley, my eldest son is here, in the Army, so thought it was a good time to come over and see whats happening...You where a BIG influence on my motorcycle passion, though was never into sport bikes, you were an AWESOME rider!!
This site really brings back some fantastic memories of some great people I met....and you for sure, were one of them...
I lost contact with Gary Norman awhile back, though I heard he was in Texas...I remember Louie,Johnny Picolino ,Mauro and Claudio..Heard about Scott, real bummer, cuz he hired me when I went to the Wiz..Real class act guy..
Anyway, sounds like you did VERY well Hans, happy to hear that and that all is well....and as they say, "its the good people you meet on the journey, that makes it worthwhile"....
All the best to you and your family.....
All my best,
Eli...
P.S....To Allan H...Thanks for good wishes..I worked in the Hartsdale store..1984-1987...Best back at ya!!
