Ross Perot is a business man, patriot and an Horatio Alger recipient. He’s also a bit of a cut up. Last night Ross couldn’t resist having some fun with Ebby “Almost 100” Halliday (pictured right with Ross) at Myrna and Bob Schlegels’ party for the March 9th Horatio Alger gala honoring Ebby.
After the photo was taken, Ebby, herself an Horatio Alger recipient, told Ross she’d pay him back when he turned 100.
Earlier in the evening, “Old Two Fingers” serenaded Ebby with You’ll Never Walk Alone, To Dream The Impossible Dream and Climb Every Mountain. He also tried to get Ebby to shoot some baskets in the Schlegels’ third floor basketball court. Ebby opted to just dribble the ball a bit.
