33rd and The Tracks takes you back to Armour Park -- a South Side playground built on tradition, chaos, and tight-knit friendship. It's where kids learned the rules early, legends ran the benches like bosses, and every summer night came with a new story to tell.

Russell "Rino" Scalise grew up in the middle of it all -- surrounded by Comiskey Park, the Mack Truck yard, and the rumble of passing trains that never stopped the fun. From throwing a 250-person party in a closed park to pulling off a beer heist from a Mack Truck trailer, 33rd and The Tracks is packed with the kind of wild, funny, and unforgettable moments only Bridgeport could produce.

From fistfights and first beers to Sunday mornings at Blue's Bar & Grill, these stories capture the mischief, laughter, and loyalty of growing up in a place like no other.

Equal parts hilarious and heartfelt, 33rd and The Tracks isn't just a memoir -- it's a tribute to family, friendship, and the neighborhood that raised him.
