Wasn't that the guy who told kids to send in the green paper in their parents' purses as a joke, and he actually received a bunch of money?

Some thought it wasn't a joke. Big scandal.

Even as late as the early 1980's, one of our local stations would show reruns of his show in the afternoon. I remember him asking if anyone in the audience had "half a buck" and a deer head was passed up to him. As a little kid, I thought that was hee-larious. So hey, you have at least one Gen-Xer who got the reference...
