I liked that one, too. But one of my favorites is when the Governor's driver parks the Governor's car in a no parking spot and Barney gives him a parking ticket. The Mayor is upset but Andy sticks with Barney and even the Governor himself appears in Mayberry to congratulate Barney. Maybe that driver worked for Clinton in later years!!!

This is probably old hat to all you folks, but here is my one piece of Mayberry trivia for those few that haven't heard it...the actor playing Floyd suffered a stroke midway through the series and lost the use of his legs, so after a certain point in the run, you only saw him sitting...sitting in the barber chair, on the porch, on a box, pretty much anywhere you could rationalize it. Like FDR, it was kept as a secret.

Did you know that the actor that played the driver was really Ron Howard's father, Rance?
