We find the SC 4000 along I-55 South with Super Cool Andy driving, Super Cool Joe holding on & Super Cool Matt in the sidecar. When they reached St. Louis & crossed over the Mississippi River, they saw the Gateway Arch, the gateway to the west.
"Man, after St. Louis, this tour's half-over." said SC Joe, "I think you'll like St. Louis for its unique museums."
SC Andy groaned.
"Hey, there's a couple of museums Andy would like." said SC Matt.
The super boys checked into a hotel, changed into their secret identity tourist clothes & went out. They blindfolded Andy as they took him to a surprise. When they arrived, Andy took off his blindfold.
"Cool! A video game museum!"
"Not only can you look @ the exhibits, but you can play them as well." explained Joey.
The boys went to the museum & played classic video games & pinball machines.
Then as they headed somewhere else, Andy saw a billboard of The St. Louis Ewes & a football player wearing a #29 jersey.
"Who's he?" asked Andy.
"That's Magic Jordan." explained Matt, "The best thing that happened to the Ewes. He's not only a super talented running back, but he's also a role model, mentor & musician. He also has a cool restaurant nearby."
"Let's go!" said Andy.
"Later, we got two more museums to visit." said Joey.
The boys next stop was a bowling museum. After seeing the exhibits, they got a chance to go bowling @ the basement alley. Matt was a great bowler (and learned by watching The Professional Bowling League on QBC) that Joey tried to catch him. In one frame, Andy was pumped when he converted the 7-10 split! Matt beat his brothers 246 to Joey's 214 to Andy's Dutch 200.
Then they went to the St. Louis Ewes Museum & sure enough, there was a section for Magic Jordan. He was an All-American athlete in high school, as well as his years in Palm Olive University before turning pro.
Andy pushed a button to view a video documentary. The 1st part was a public service commercial he did. Magic was in uniform playing a drum solo on his set of drums. Then he played a snare drum roll saying,
"Take the G & place an M! Get high playing drums, not on drugs!"
(Cymbal crash).
The 2nd part's a commercial he shot to promote ticket sales for the Ewes. The commercial started with a close-up of drumsticks drumming a fast beat on his hi-hat cymbals, then showed Magic lifting weights. Next, a close-up of a hand poppin notes on a bass guitar playing a funky beat, then Magic ran through tires. Next, a close-up of a hand strumming on an electric guitar using his wah-wah pedal, then showed Magic in action on the football field. Next, a close up of his hand playing an electric guitar solo, then showed Magic scoring a touchdown & doing a dance. Then, the ad showed (using trick photography) 4 Magic Jordans playing each instrument as a band.
"If you think that's magic, check out Magic & the Ewes out on the field." he said.
The 3rd & final part's a feature on him when QBC had Football Warm-Up. The interview was about his fine performance on the field for the team as well as his musical talent. Magic was brought up in a musical family, but liked playing football better. Magic can play drums, bass, guitar, piano, organ & vibes. Magic couldn't play any wind instruments @ all.
"Cool!" exclaimed Andy, "We got to go to his restaurant!"
That night, our boys wore their suit & ties @ Magic Jordan's Cool Restaurant having dinner. It had a sports bar & music room. Every week, Magic Jordan would perform with his band. They find him playing a vibes solo with Kevin Matthews up on stage with him. Then he handed the mallets to Kevin as he played a cool vibes solo. Then they played together, Magic stood next to Kevin playing lead while Kevin played rhythm. The folks cheered.
"Let's hear it for our vibraphonist & star of Boy Conquers America, Kevin Matthews!" said Magic, "Kevin's touring with some role models I'd like to meet, The Super Cool Brothers."
"A sorry excuse for role models!" said a heckler.
"Mixing football or super heroes with music stinks!" said another heckler.
"Will you leave me alone, Heckler & Jeckler!" complained Magic,
"If you don't like it, go somewhere else to eat."
"Might as well," quipped Jeckler, "I ordered a roast beef sandwich & it tasted like a roach beef sandwich!" (Laughing).
Heckler & Jeckler were causing trouble @ the restaurant that our trio went to the gentlemen's room & switched to their super hero outfits. As Heckler & Jeckler were about to pour beer over Magic, they heard,
"I'd leave if I were you!" said SC Joe.
"Look Jeckler," said Heckler, "It's The Stupid Cool Brothers! What are you gonna do? Sing us to death!"
Heckler & Jeckler attacked our super hero trio. But as you know, good triumphs over evil! SC Joe & Matt punched them while SC Andy used his karate skills. The 2 troublemakers were taken away & arrested.
Magic Jordan was so grateful, he paid their bill & had them perform with him on stage. They had 3 jam sessions.
1). Magic & SC Andy dueling it out on drums.
2). Magic & SC Matt playing guitars & singing together.
3). Magic & SC Joe dueled it out playing jazz guitar soloes.
Afterwards, he had their picture taken with them.
"I'm surprised that I met some national role models. You brothers really rock as super heroes & your songs are awesome!"
Then to their disbelief, Magic got out a pack of cigarettes.
"Let's bail, he's no role model." said SC Joe. But Magic wouldn't let them go.
"Chill." he said. He took a cigarette & put it in his mouth, then chewed it. They thought it was gross until he blew a bubble.
"They're bubble gum cigarettes, I endorse it." explained Magic,
"Priced cheap & brightens the smile. Also comes in green spearmint. Try one."
"We apologize." said the SC Bros. as they took a piece of green spearmint bubble gum cigarettes & chewed it.
