In the early 90's Tom spear had a arcade and City moved from Stanley Lake area to live and be near foosball tables in Arvada we played non stop! Dan loved foosball and would practice almost every night after work! Dan was a master electrician. Saturdays he could be found in the arcade playing foosball till all hours of the night he wanted to be a Champion. And sure enough he won many many titles! In highschool we would ride from party to party in Dan's Jeep and man did we have some good times! I remember Dan writing me when I lived in Bolivia and in fact I might still have a letter from my friend. I guess I am posting this because today we need a miracle I know I am really not making any sense but Dan Watkins one of my best friend'S is fighting for his life. This came out of know where. Schrunk Leo can you please write something about us growing up that makes sense Edited by user Monday, May 21, 2018 11:57:20 PM(UTC)

I envied his comedic sarcasm and brazen smack talk. Condolences to his loved ones.

Really stinks! There is no way I was suppose to be around longer than City. Sincere condolences to City’s family and close friends. Don’t seem that long ago Bear & City were dead nut favorites to take Rookie Events on tour. Walter Edited by user Tuesday, May 22, 2018 6:39:45 PM(UTC)

I'm completely out of touch these days, but this sucks! I'm sorry to hear such sad news. Dan, you had a unique sense of humor and were fun to be around. God bless brother. John Morse Edited by user Wednesday, May 23, 2018 5:02:30 PM(UTC)

Man way too young. I’ve been trying to wrap my head around it and it still just doesn’t make any sense. Much love City! See you on the flip side brother.

I can’t either AK. Dan texted me from a new number last month on the 10th. I asked if it was City and he said “ City died in the hospital, I just got out so yes formerly known as City. I can’t live the Big City lifestyle any more.” I asked what happened and he said “ long story, I’ll tell ya when I’m feeling better.” I wished him a speedy recovery and a month and a half later, this. Like you said, I can’t wrap my head around it. I’m so sad.

Me too bro. Ross and I were on the golf course the other day and I thought “man Big City should be here”. It was surreal and sad.
