This is a petition to rename 99th Street to "The Goat Way". Earl was the best play ground basketball player in the world for his time. The Goat tournaments has been in existent since 1971. The name of the tournament name is Earl Manigault "Walk Away from Drugs" tournament. Our son Darrin and myself Yvonne are still running the tournament. Nike has used the "Goat Park" for their tournament "The Battle of The tournament" in honor of The Goat. Earl dedicated his life to keeping the inner city children off the street in the summer. This is his way of giving back to the community. Earl had a lot of accomplishments that he fulfilled in his life. He was given Earl Manigault Day for several years, lots of plaque for his coaching ability, his commitment to his tournament for the children, and also a movie documentary called "REBOUND". The parks department has dedicated the 99th street courts to him, which we have always called the "Goat Park". I am asking everyone to help me get this task accomplished by signing this petition. If you need to contact me my number is 832-335-1158. In signing this petition please put your name,full address(ciy,state,zipcode) and phone number where you can be contacted.
 
Thanking you in advance for your participation in this petition.
