WAIT!!
That's Cleveland.
It's funny, I lived in Cleveland until 1996. I had someone send me one of these for Detroit. I also got the "you know you're a baby boomer if..." from my sister who is eight years older than me.
Do you remember Ghoulardi and Big Chuck and Hoolihan?
Or shopping at Giant Tiger?

No. I only remember The Ghoul because I had cousins in Port Huron, and they could get a Detroit TV channel, and when we visited them, that was our big weekend night deal, watching The Ghoul's creature features. I thought he was out of Detroit. Geez, is that ever a long time ago.

"The Ghoul" is BOTH -- he's Ron Sweed, native of Cleveland, who went to Channel 50 (WKBD) in Detroit to host horror shows as "The Ghoul," competition to "Sir Graves Ghastly" in the early 1970s. He later took the show to Cleveland, where I've heard he's still on ... ?
