Bullitt

• T-shirt commemoration of opera night wins contest - "It was 1983 Opening Night at the opera and the patrons waited patiently for three hours for the lead singer's replacement who was being flown in from New York. (The lead singer had lost his voice!) In the opera house staircase several gentlemen had hoisted me into a window from where I could see, with my high-powered binoculars, the police-escorted arrival of Placido Domingo. When finally I saw the approaching entourage I reported to the gentlemen below, who quickly ran to shout the good news over the balcony - Placido had saved the day! - "I HAD to have a T-shirt commemorating that event. It's my favorite. ... I will cherish it always along with this story and memories of the San Francisco Opera."
