Back in 2002 I had a chance to talk with him for over an hour in his art gallery in New Orleans. His hospitality and willingness to talk with a virtual stranger about the USFL will not be forgotten.
USFLMemorabilia.com expresses our deepest condolences to the Dixon family and his friends and those in his business during this time.
