Have you ever been to Bobby Valentine's restaurant in Stamford? The food is rather subpar, but the drinks are decently priced for CT. For my 24th birthday in Feb. 2003, about 20 friends brought me there for dinner and drinks. Bobby was between jobs at the time, so he happened to be at the restaurant and came out of the kitchen and bought the whole party shots. Pretty cool.

Anyway, I'm actually writing to point out that Bobby V claims to have invented the wrap sandwich, which I find pretty hilarious. Right on the menu, it says (paraphrasing) that one night in the early 80's, he ran out of bread, and improvised by using some available tortillas to build sandwiches -- and that they were a hit. And no, I don't believe him for a second. I would love to see if any other contentious sports figures claim to have invented food or drinks. I'm thinking maybe David Wells was the first to fry a twinkee, or perhaps A-Rod was the first to say "Make mine a chocolate martini".
