Wally was and probably still is a mischievous, fun-loving character. I can think of two stories, one of which I witnessed personally, the other of which he told me, in which he was riding a motorcycle and managed to elude cops who were chasing him. This is while he was already a “Governor”. I was at a party once where we spent the whole evening telling hilarious Wally stories.
