Heard a new story about Prince's childhood.

This girl told me at work "yeah my mom used to live right across from Prince. Everyday he would come and knock on the door and ask for cornbread...my mother would make it all the time..."

just..more "true stories" from Minneapolis nod

Other story I told before was the Prince throwing rocks at cars and writing his name on the wall in spraypaint...but I told those in detail last year...

Cool. Thanks. I met this guy once who said he went on a few dates with Prince's first girlfriend. He said she knew Prince when he was a kid. He told me her name but I forgot it. He said she said Prince was very diffrent and unique even at that age. biggrin

I heard that he liked Cherry flavored PEZ and Grapette as a youngster. Not to mention that he had it bad for Lt. Ohura.

lol no, nothin like that. the background of it is one day a couple summers ago i was at tatters, doing some shopping (god, i love that store). dude behind the counter is also a prince fan (dunno if you go to tatters or not, but the redheaded guy is the cat i'm talking about), so then he tells me about how he spotted p in uptown back when pr was just about to drop. here's the story:

he and some of his punker friends were hanging out by the micky d's over in uptown, and he noticed someone in a white volkswagen rabbit parked in the parking lot nearby. that someone happened to be prince...well, dude spotted 'im and points 'im out to his buddies...y'know, "hey look, it's prince!". they all started walking over towards the car to go say "what's happenin" or whatever...ol' boy spotted 'em and, probably thinkin that all the punks were coming over to kick his ass, he and his little vw peeled outta the parking lot!

outta all the prince stories i've heard so far since moving up here, that one's my favorite. giggle
