Willis Lawson is the man responsible for convincing the arena managers,in the mid and late 50's,to allow him to sell RBBB concessions.

He took good care of them and the following year,they welcomed him back with open arms.The rest is history!

He was an orphan and very likable and really understood human nature.


While extremely successful,you would not think that he had a dime.
If any of his employees "flashed", like driving an expensive car,he told them to get off the lot and don't come back until they got rid of the car.
