That actually, so they say, write what you know, right? So we lived outside of Chicago and we moved to Crown Point, Indiana.

And Indiana is like a different country from Chicago.

Greg SteffiGUEST
without firing a shot.
Greg SteffiGUEST
At that time, Pierpont, Mackley, and Clark were extradited back to Lima, Ohio for the murder of Sheriff Jess Sarber, who they had killed in the process of springing Dillinger from jail there.
Greg SteffiGUEST
Dillinger was extradited back to Crown Point, Indiana to face charges for the murder of Officer O'Malley.
Greg SteffiGUEST
And that's what brought him to Crown Point, which led to the infamous escape with the alleged wooden gun.
Casey CrabbHOST
And that's when we got together and said, well, let's start this travel stuff and let's play.
Casey CrabbHOST
And we found, and of course with you working with Cameron's group already, you knew that there was a league in Lafayette, it was called Blue Chips, that we could put the boys in to start with, and then we could supplement that with Crown Point, Merrillville, Fishers, Fort Wayne, and do about five or six tournaments a year.
Casey CrabbHOST
We even did a lot of fundraising to get businesses on board because each one of those tournaments cost about $250 at the time.
Casey CrabbHOST
But it meant family buy-ins.
Casey CrabbHOST
But, yeah, so we did that.
Casey CrabbHOST
And it was great competition.
Casey CrabbHOST
And then so it did prepare them, though, when we went and saw some of these teams at Crown Point and at Fort Wayne and Merrillville because we weren't intimidated by good competition.
Casey CrabbHOST
But yet we did see a lot of value in the fact of seeing other styles of play.

The previous month, he had absconded from prison yet again this time from the supposedly escape-proof Crown Point, Indiana County Jail.

To add insult to injury, Dillinger had used a wooden gun, blackened with shoe polish in the escape, and stolen Sheriff Lillian Holley's brand-new car to make his getaway.

Little Bohemia Lodge belonged to Emil Wanatka, and gang members followed him and his family whenever they left the house.
Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
You know, I question, uh, it's hard to know how good, you know, some teams are and compare it.
Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
Like Crown Point, I mean, h- do we really know anything until ...
Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
Uh, and it's nothing against them.
Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
They just don't play.
Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
They come down here and play, uh, Center Grove.

Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
It's just harder with Crown Point, and they've run off all these wins in the regular season consecutively, but, uh, you know, we just don't know how good they are.
Kyle NeddenriepGUEST
Just there's not a lot of common opponents.
Dan ProftHOST
