A Moment of Silence for Soupy Sales

One of the most famous television hosts, Soupy Sales, passed away last week – October 22, 2009 – at the age of 83. I remember my dad telling me when I was a kid about Soupy Sales and how he used to watch Lunch with Soupy Sales everyday. Although I, personally never had the opportunity to watch Soupy, I still know what he did for television and what he did for comedy. I wanted to share this video on my comedy blog because I think it really is a testament to his charm, his wit, and of course, his hilarious New Year’s Day stunt in 1965. Enjoy!
