Arthur Grossman (aka Grossie) wanted to be a policeman all his life. He is a struggling stand-up comic[1] and a feature writer for the magazine The Highway Patrolman.
He is an expert in the rules of roller hockey. He enjoys playing chess and would have won the CHP tournament if he didn't knock over the board.[2] Once, he coached the CHP Central basketball team.[3]
He was hospitalized after being attacked by a tow truck while on duty,[4] suffering from shock, as well as crashing while chasing an Edsel and suffering a broken jaw.
According to Grossie (and his family album), he has always been overweight, including his time in "the service" and just before he got married.[5]
As of 1999, Grossman is a detective for the California Highway Patrol.[6]
