Krizmanich: ‘It’s OK, I’m a Kennedy’

Decades ago when the Kennedy family skied Aspen, my ski buddy and I were skiing Ajax by lift No. 1.  We stopped on the side to take a break. Suddenly, a young boy skied across John’s skies. I believe they were Heads. 

John shouted, “Hey, kid, you just ran over the top of my skis.” 

The boy stopped, mumbled some words, then said something like, “It’s OK, I’m a Kennedy.”

It was Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He didn’t display a lot of class or intelligence. He hasn’t changed that much as adult male! 

I feel sorry for the Kennedy family.
