I saw him many times when I was gigin’ Caesars. Back then I’d do 45 mins and then had an hour off. To kill the time I could hang in the showroom. Sammy was really something to witness. Special. I remember one night he stopped by the lounge as he was walking in and he asked if we wanted to go to the movies after work. Of course we all said yes. So he has them open the movie theater across town at 3:30 am and had the snack bar staffed  and everything was paid for. Maybe 20 - 25 of us went in to watch Sinatra’s “ First Deadly Sin”. Nice memory.
