September 30, 20179 yr Dang we were just talking about him about a month ago in the game show thread. RIP Monty and thanks for the memories. Hearing your name instantly takes me back to when I was a kid hanging with my parents and siblings watching and laughing to Let's Make a Deal.
October 1, 20179 yr Author Mo Egger tweeted "they should have three coffins at his funeral". He is at the pearly gates trying to make a deal. This sorta reminds of this joke that I heard many many years ago: A rather bad man dies and meets Satan in a room with three doors. Satan explains, "I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that you have to spend eternity behind one of these doors. But, the good news is that you can take a peek behind each and take your choice." So, the man opened the first door and saw a room full of people, standing on their heads on a concrete floor. Not very nice, he thought. Opening the second door, he saw a room full of people standing on their heads on a wooden floor. Better, he thought, but best to check the last door. Upon opening the last door, he saw a room full of people, standing waist-deep in excrement and sipping coffee. "Of the three, this one looks best," he said and waded in to get something to drink while Satan closed the door. A few minutes later the door opened, Satan stuck his head in and said, "Ok, coffee break's over, back on your heads!"
October 1, 20179 yr I watched that show a lot back in the day. Time sure flies. If someone had asked me to guess his age there’s no way I would have thought 96.
October 1, 20179 yr Great memories of watching that show with siblings and cousins. But I never understood why the audience was dressed in costumes.
October 1, 20179 yr Didn't know he was still alive. I'm thinking about starting a "dead pool" this Halloween. May have to do some research on guys like this that are still kicking.
