Rudweiser is prominently shown in the Fort Wayne video. I remember selling him a Budweiser Prohibition 8 ounce paper label malt can for $20. He was over joyed. roomed with him for a night in Lexington as well. A very nice guy.

Remember talking to Rudy in Cleveland and he was saying the Vikings were going to the Super Bowl. After pressing him why, he said they had already bought tickets for the game.

Wow.......Rudy was a great guy and a great roommate at several shows. His knowledge of the A-B cans and breweriana was unmatched.
Rudy will be missed.

I don't know Rudy very well, but I do remember him when I first setting up a table at the breweriana show, He asked me " If I had a Busch can with a circle on it. Which I don't have. I do wondering if he ever gotten that can over the years ?

Damn, Rudy was my roomy at the last 2 Blue/Gray shows I attended. Also, if memory serves, at a Canvention too. Time catches up with all of us at one time or another....

Man, that sucks. Really nice guy. I would always talk story with him at Blue Gray and at the couple of Canventions I attended. Any Idea how he died? I remember him telling me (can't remember now) how old he was and I was pretty shocked. Thought he was younger(ish).

RUDY WILL BE MISSED. IT WAS ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO SEE HIM EVERY YEAR AT BLUE GRAY!
I have had the great privilege of dumping with 68 current and former Rusty Bunch members, to date. Got to hit the woods of Virginia with Charlie Smigo recently.
