“The firefighters. They all came to me with tears streaming down their eyes. I remember Steve Buscemi was one of them. He was there,” recounted Fat Donald, “They said, ‘sir, we wanted to save them but they said they hate you. They were so mean.’ It was the biggest fire we’ve ever seen. So tremendous, nothing like it in history ever. We didn’t start these fires. It was always burning since the world’s been turning. Marciano, Liberace, Eisenhower, goodbye.“
