Lunajammer Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) NBC News did the finest and most thorough tribute I've seen all week and I recommend you watch it in full screen. It aired December 30th so it missed Barbara Walters and Pope Benedict. Compliments to the editors. https://www.nbc.com/nbc-nightly-news/video/in-memoriam-remembering-those-we-lost-in-2022/NBCN171301858 Edited January 2, 2023 by Lunajammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the ONLY reason you've ever heard the Chicken Dance, or done it at a wedding or other event. 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSheep214 Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 Probably the reason is he’s basically an unknown up until his death. Hardly a blip on anyone’s radar.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamsuperdan Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 It's a crime that his contributions to wedding reception culture has gone virtually unnoticed. 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Maybe the Chicken Dance was overshadowed by the Hokey Pokey. I've heard that the guy who invented the Hokey Pokey has since turned himself around... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
