LEAGUE OF THEMSELVES BIRTHDAY SALUTE - TONY HAWK FOR NEIL O'BRIEN


On the occasion of my nephew Neil's 22nd birthday, I did a showcase for Tony Hawk.  And here it is three years later, and Neil has reached the quarter century mark!

Well, this being the world of TV, why not schedule a rerun?

But this time, with a twist - last time, we saw Tony Hawk in the Tooniverse.  Now we're back in the world of Earth Prime-Time.......

TONY HAWK

From Wikipedia:
Anthony Frank "Tony" Hawk (born May 12, 1968), nicknamed "The Birdman", is an American former professional skateboarder and actor. Hawk is well known for completing the first documented 900 and for his licensed video game titles, distributed by Activision. He is widely considered to be one of the most successful and influential pioneers of modern vertical skateboarding.

In 2002, he created the "Boom Boom HuckJam", an extreme sports exhibition and tour that was launched inLas Vegas. Throughout his career, Hawk has made numerous appearances in films, other media, and his own series of video games. He has also been involved in various philanthropic activities, including his own Tony Hawk Foundation that helps to build skate-parks in underprivileged areas.
