Marion Barry's Bet With Ed Rendell: Joe Conklin Muses

Conklin imagines a telephone conversation between former Mayor Ed Rendell and Washington, D.C. ex-Mayor Marion Barry, a man caught using drugs on tape.

“I’ll bet you a cheese steak sandwich that the Eagles beat the Redskins next Sunday,”
says Rendell.

“No, says Barry, ‘I want the crack in the Liberty Bell’.”
