I'm so glad you guys remember Sid dying right before air time one evening. I remember that, too, but I was afraid my memory was a bit creative. Was Sid the one that was known for "ta-da-da-dum-ta-dum Presidio, Texas!" when announcing the hottest spot on the map or was that someone else?
Yes, that was Sid Lasher! I grew up with him. I had just started high school when he died. He had the greatest funeral ever. About half the city showed up. I sure do miss him.
