VIDEO - On Tuesday, the crew of Engine Company 33 - A Division responded to a medical call at a retirement community. When they arrived, they spotted a woman bouncing a ping pong ball alone. They asked the staff about the woman and were told she is 101-years young and always looking for a worthy ping pong opponent to play with. Her name? Marjorie Harford. "I just play ping pong. I don't know why I am good," she said. Once the patient who needed assistance was put into the ambulance, firefighter Nick Plancich offered to play. Plancich was a worthy opponent, but he was no match for the ping-pong loving centenarian! "I thought he would beat me, but he didn't. He couldn't believe how good I was," Marjorie said.
