It was at the 1985 National Press Club's Salute to Congress at 529 14th Street NW in Washington D.C. that Riggins drunkenly told Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor to "loosen up" because she was "too tight" when the two met at dinner.



3-4 years ago Justice O'Connor was the keynote speaker at the Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, NV. Originally being a ranch girl from New Mexico she told stories not exactly related to her years on the bench. For being a Supreme Court Justice, she'd fit in anywhere, very personable.

I remember she said she graduated at or near the top of her law class. First law firm job interview and she being a she, they offered her a job as a secretary.
