My uncle told me he met Hunter Thompson when he was on his "walkabout" in the early '70s. He said Hunter dedicated Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas to him. It said "To Bob Geiger for reasons that need not be explained here- and to Bob Dylan, for Mister Tambourine Man."

I believed him for decades, occasionally asking him what that was about. He always told me they had a pact to never reveal that. Even after Hunter died, he wouldn't tell me. Finally after my uncle passed away, I looked it up, and it wasn't my uncle, it was some doctor in Napa. That's my uncle Robert- always a prankster.
