The story goes something along the lines of: Mark ‘Gator’ Rogowski was good at skateboarding, got rich and famous (like, Tony Hawk rich and famous, but in the 80s), turned into an egomaniac alcoholic, got into Jesus and did a truly truly awful thing to his ex girlfriend’s best friend (hint: his defense included some solid gold about ‘rough sex gone wrong..’ but actually he just beat her to death).
