Going beyond his funny bits, he was one of the funniest and most talented show hosts I’ve ever seen.<<<<
He used to do his show across from the Hollywood Ranch Market, I think it was. He was always doing man on the street stuff with their customers. I’ll bet that was great to see him live! I see the late night guys today and it’s a shame, they don’t come close.
We were so excited to go to the taping. We were a fan club (just three of us.) He acknowledged us in the audience for 10 seconds just 'cause we were from a junior high bowling league. Imagine! We were on TV with Steve Allen!
Does this brush with hollywood stardom mean I have to turn in my conservative credentials? ;0)
