The randy girl, her coiffe a casualty of their passion, is Bobcat cheerleader Angie Hop, then 17.
The picture was taken twenty-three years ago. Back then Angie, or "Ang" as she is known to the multitude of people who love her, was voted "Most Likely to Kiss Guys" by her fellow Marshalltown (IA) H.S. students. Not only that, she was...
