How It All Goes Down
- The year's 1948. It's a hot summer day in South Boston, and "a shy kid" named John Connolly is dropping by the corner store with his bros.
- All the sudden, they notice a legendary neighborhood street tough: Whitey Bulger. Though still a teen, Bulger has a big reputation as a member of the hilariously named Shamrock Gang.
- Irish much?
- In fact, because everyone around here is Irish, Bulger buys a round of ice cream. Connolly describes this experience as being as thrilling as meeting a famous baseball player.
