Christ Adam owned a saloon on Babcock Street in Buffalo NY. One day his son Frederick made a bet in the saloon with some of the other patrons that he could drink a glass of water while standing on his head. Fred won the bet. Unfortunately, when he drank the water, it seeped into the roots of his hair, rotted them, and caused the hair on top of his head to fall out.
