    • I'm to young to remember, but my parents told me something that he did that was pretty funny. He had a daytime/Saturday morning kids show. Well one day he told the kids to sneak into your parents room and take a 5 dollar bill and send it to him. Needless to say he got thousands of dollars.

    • You ever notice during memoriams you see people you already thought were dead? I swear Soupy Sales died a decade ago.
