I was in my 30's when I got to meet Bob Keeshan at the toy show in NYC.
I couldn't believe how emotional I got. It was the wierdest thing. I've met
tons of famous people whom I've admired over the years but when he came to the
booth I was working I was completely overcome with emotion. He and his group
must have thought I was out of my mind. A grown man practically blubbering over
meeting Captain Kangaroo! What a maroon.
I've never had that reaction to anyone before or since. He was extremely
gracious and generous with the few minutes I got to talk to him. Obviously it's
a moment I won't/can't forget and have never fully understood.

Damn! How sad!
Soupy was part of my childhood, for sure.
The Top 5: Captain Kangaroo, Howdy Doodie, Mr. Peepers, Sky King (Penny
was HOT!), and Soupy.
"Sales recently fell backstage at a local Emmy awards show in New York
and developed serious ailments after that, Dver said."
I knew it! Most modern TV shows are un-healthy and can kill you.
