I'd say that is not Bill Walton's bus. I believe I know that bus and its owner. That's probably from a photo shoot. Think

You're correct!
He wouldn't even fit inside to drive it.

That looks a lot like your bus, Joe.

Ok, I have to strike while the iron is hot.

Monte Vista High School is playing Helix High School at Helix in a regular season game. I'm the second string center for Monte Vista. All is well and I've been put in for some final points. Our coach says, "Take you post position and don't move, keep your hands in the air, and don't falter. Helix is sending in their new guy, Walton." Rushing down field comes this big huge guy that proceeds to come at me like a falling World Trade Tower. I cower at the thought of even one of his elbows hitting me. He scores every time. I'll never forget it.

I fit in a bus but he wouldn't without some serious modifications.

His right hand that he used to fret the notes is fantastically muscular.
