Betraying a friend when he was younger introduces Sam to his soul mate - bourbon. This raving demon alcoholic is one miserable human being who was born deformed with two left hands.

 

Sam has a crazy obsession with two things, Broadway Joe Namath and razor-sharp knives. He gets off on intimidating and abusing his wonderful son, Lucas, and Lucas’s precious pit bull Tippy Toes.

 

Sam is a walking stick of dynamite and his tough-guy persona leads him to believe that no one would ever have the guts to light his wick.
