She started wimpering after I took it to her, so Bozo, out of compassion I guess, gave her a prize pack as well. Big a$$ crayola set.

HOw ironic that we both participated...

That is wild bro. We are part of the Bozo Hall of Fame, only fitting.

I just pulled out the tape, It was Nov 25th 1986. Were you on it in Boston or Chicago?

Neither. It came to Philly. I was accompanied by my mom, my best friend, two of my brothers, and one of my brothers' friends.
I never thought in a million years I'd bump into someone that went through that same experience as I did. That is some wild $hit.
I thought it would be cute to show my girlfriend last year...ummmm. no, wrong idea. She played it in front of her family and I was soon after the laughing stock of the month. I wore the bright orange jersey, blue sweatpants WTF? (not to mention they were floodies, didnt even reach my socks). My enormous lips, that didnt fit my thin face back then, were flapping wildly. My voice was screechy and I actually pulled out the Arcenio Hall fist pump. Soooo embarrassing. Best part about it, was when the whole crowd danced at the conclusion of the show. I can't even explain the moves I was doing. Hysterical would be an understatement.
BTWay, when they did the bucket ball toss, the little kids helper couldnt even get it past the 2nd bucket. Some tall lanky guy too.
I'll never forget it as long as I live.

Yeah, I got to bucket 4, the prizes I got was a bozo cake, a wagon, some lincoln logs, and some gi-joe things. Pretty wild. I was messing with Wizzo the whole time. DUTTY-DUTTY DO

Lol. Is there somewhere I could go with my cassette tape and transfer it to a disk so that I could post it on the net? I dont know if you could do that, and wouldnt know where to begin if it is even possible.

no idea, I am afraid to play it because VCR's just eat tape now, and I don't think you can buy a VCR anymore at the store

My VCR plays it perfectly, without a hitch. Im about to bring it to Eckerd or Rite Aid tomorrow on my lunch break. See what they can do for me, or at least point me in the right direction.

BTW

Although this thread has disintegrated into nebulous prattle I thought I would respond once more. It seems we measure success differently. I am quite aware that if I adjust my ticket(s) and increase the spread (bet more) I would "hit" more often. But that would change my agenda, and I am not about to do that.

I did look at the pick six thread and congratulate the poster that found all six, even if monopoly money was the currency of choice. Calling the handicapping brilliant would seem a stretch. To wit: 8-5 favorite in a kill, 9-5 favorite in a kill, 7-5 free square, even money walkover and an outcross favorite were five of the legs. The other leg was a razor sharp filly in good hands that has moved way up since going green, figured a perfect trip and was dropping substantially in class. BBB

I don't suppose you ever heard of the Freddy Friehofer show....I was on that show in the early 60's or maybe it was the late 50's
