Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Beknightment

[red5hilser (red5hilser]

Speaking of Colonel Harlan Sanders, I helped cover the Rose Bowl back in the 
'70s, the year that he was Grand Marshal of the Rose Parade. And who should be 
sitting next to me in the Pressbox but the Colonel. White suit, string tie and 
all. He was a really nice guy, and asked me some questions about both USC and 
Ohio State, who were playing that day. Being the ultimate newspaper free-loader 
that I was, I was disappointed he didn't give me one of his cards that said I 
would get a lifetime 10% discount. Cheap bastard!

Another nice guy that I sat next to at the 1965 World Series was Bill Veck (as 
in wreck.) One of the all time baseball legends. But on the other side of the 
coin was when Howard Cosell and the MNFB broadcast crew came into L.A. to do a 
Monday night game and we had dinner with them at Lawry's The Prime Rib in 
Hollywood. 

Talk about your insufferable assholes! Mr 'I wrote the book, and I know it 
all!' And the more he drank, the more loud and?obnoxious he got. Dandy Don and 
Frank Gifford couldn't get a word in edgewise. Looking back, it was funny, but 
if you had to sit thru an hour of it, it was like having your fingernails 
ripped out, one at a time.

Ach, the memories, yer pal, Ferrari Bubba

Not a knight, but I did get the lovely opportunity to hang out with Col
Sanders niece(probably 24 at the time, and beautiful!!) at the Kentucky
Colonels BBQ after the Derby.  I will never forget this lovely lady looking
me in the eye and(in a wonderful southern drawl) saying "Mark, why don't we
mosey over to the shade and talk for a while".   I would have crawled to
that shade.......

Good times at the Derby!

Any other honorary 'Kentucky Colonels' out there? I got my pin?the year that
I went to the Derby and got sick from more than a few too many mint julips.
I don't know whether it was the julips or the poorly aimed urine stream, but
I ruined my new pair of ostrich skin cowboy boots that bright, hot, May day.
