My Safety is Harvard (and if you don't read that blog, you should, because MJ is a genius) did a whole awesome post on the greatness that is Jaroslav Spacek, and it made me think of this story a friend of mine told me.

Last pre-season, at the end of one of the games, various Sabres were around the Arena signing autographs. (I was at that pre-season game, on a date--and no, not a date with Anne--but I didn't stay because I was really sick.) Anytoot, a friend of mine who is a manager at the Arena was in an elevator with Sissy, Kotalik and Paetsch. Kotalik turns to Sissy and goes "So, Space-K, did anyone actually want your autograph?" (Or something to that extent.) Al! How can you be so mean to Sissy! He placed second in the "Which Sabre Would You Rather Have Watch Your Children?" poll, not to mention the fact that we're all big Sissy fans over here at Sabretooth's House.
See? These kids love Jaro! Why you gotta hate, Kotalik?
Still though, you have to admit, that was pretty funny.
I'm proud to day that I'm a long time advocate of Spacek being the replacement of Soupy on those Veins Veins Veins commercials.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, when I heard that story, it pushed Ales Kotalik waaayyyy far down the list of potential #5s and secured Sissy as co #2.
ReplyDeleteAl's great! I so miss Jaro.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I would like to see Mair in drag. I think he could pull it off.
