A different kind of Grover’s Video Korner
Old Man Army lost a soldier named Grover a couple of weeks ago, and they put together a tribute:
He had a massive head injury due to a skating downhill a long time ago. He had massive brain seizures on a daily basis and it pretty much forced him to stop skating a few years back. Grover would still always show up at the park to yell at the riders and basically just heckel them..showing his support for our crew.
He drank a bottle of vodka and passed out. Since he was passed out he couldn’t take his medication and died while having a huge brain seizure.. Anyways, the Chandler crew came out in force to say goodbye to our long lost friend Grover..
Brain seizures kept him from skating, but he was still down for the session. That’s a love of skateboarding. Here’s a couple of pictures and the forum post if you want to pay your respects. Video tribute in the forum link or after the jump.
That’s a really great tribute video. My condolences to those left behind by Grover.
I dont know how much Grover there is in this but it sure looked fun. I can relate to heckeling the kids.
Very proper to have that footage at Chandler park.
Great video. Sorry to hear the news..RIP Grover.
Thanks for putting that up Kilwag…the OMA crew appreciates that.
The Doctor: Grover wasn’t in any of this video, as it was our memorial to him. We also raised enough money to get a tree and a plaque of Grover. Hopefully it will be placed where Grover use to sit and yell at the skaters.
Grover was a good man, rest in peace bro….

Why does the song “Bro Hymm” from Pennywise seem to fit this post so well…….This one’s for Grover.
