Ricky Gilley is the local ladies man legend has it. Since grade school, Ricky was banned from wearing gym shorts. The girls used to call him the man of ten inches and two avacodos. Not sure what they meant. Ricky was once kicked out of a Korean church because some of the local men caught a few of the ladies tossing the avacodos around, after they told that they were going to play foosball.
