Break Out the Unintentional Comedy Scale, I've booked Hollywood Henderson for my commercial-free Sports Talk Radio Show tonight (he'll be on about 9:05).

I figure I'll be asking him about jail (coke, pot, underage girls), 3 Super Bowls, his great verbal putdown of Bradshaw (which Bradshaw answered), his relationships with Landry and Staubach, parties at Richard Pryor's house, and the ultimate twist--winning million dollar payouts (yes, plural) in the Texas State Lottery.

Please post any your memories of him, and any questions you think I should ask him. Let the onslaught begin...

Thanks.

Show Info: 90.3 FM TONIGHT from 9PM to 11PM on Garden City's 90.3 FM. You can pick up the signal in most of the Tri-State area. Unfortunately, we are not webcast.

That would be great to hear if I could. I remember him doing commercials. Too bad I can't hear it! :dammit:

ASk him if he ever considered Professional Wrestling, since he was big, well known and had a very LARGE personality.

I tape all shows on mini-disc so if we had an audio section anywhere on the site, I'd gladly submit it to be posted.

And, Jasper, I'll definitely ask about the wrestling thing, given that his teammate, Too Tall, tried boxing.

not sure if he'd want to talk about the rest of that era of 'Boys, or if he wants to put that al behind him, but he was one of many unforgettables....

golden richards , #1 shag monster? could he actually play? or was his primary value for the leftovers factor?

randy white, harvey martin.... cooperative? or adversarial? what did he have to say about *all* the great players on the DL?

can't remember if hollywood was on the team that played in the SB where the pass was dropped in the endzone... if so, what was his reaction on the sideline? the reaction of all the players?

though he was a defensive player, what was his impression of all those sets/shifts, and up-down that the offensive line did? something tells me that all of that just wasn't Hollywood's style

did he buy into that notion that they were "America's team"? are players even aware of that stuff?

who was gnarlier, cliff harris? or charlie waters? Hollywood definitely earned the right to judge tougness

did he ever *not* want to meet Earl Campbell head-on?

obviously, you got lots more to talk about than the old days... congrats in advance for what will be a great and memorable show.

Ask him to spell "CAT" and spot him the "C" and the "T". ;)
