About the Book:
Beloved CU Buffs superfan Buffalo Phil is taking his legendary spirit off the field and onto the page with the release of his hilarious new memoir, The Blunder Years: A Boyhood Memoir.
Part laugh-out-loud misadventures, part heartfelt nostalgia, the book reveals the wild, awkward, and ADHD-powered boy behind the iconic fan. Highlights include tales of Boulder in the early ’70s—like his Wild West shootout when he worked at The Sink, driving out a nasty drug gang with double-fisted ammonia spray bottles, and leading one thousand naked students in CU’s first campus-wide streak.
Already named a Top 10 Summer Book by CU Alums, and praised by Kirkus Reviews as “funny and upbeat…full of hijinks,” "The Blunder Years" is a must-read for Buffs fans and anyone who survived the trials and triumphs of youth with their sense of humor intact.
