Reminds me of a drunk kid I met at a party in college who said his name was Pussy Smasher

Is that a more awesome name than Jim Bob Cooter?

Well I was gonna Google his name. But I'll let somebody else tell us what it says.

I can't tell if someone on Wikipedia is trolling or not, but it says that he died of prostate cancer at the age of 69....

Turns out Dick Hammer and the Marlboro Man are one-in-the-same.
quote:
Richard Bernard "Dick" Hammer (July 17, 1930 – October 18, 1999) was an American athlete, firefighter, and actor. Born in Long Beach, California, Hammer was a basketball player at the University of Southern California, competed in volleyball at the 1964 Summer Olympics, and was a retired Captain with the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACoFD). As an actor he played the role of Captain Richard "Dick" Hammer in the first season of the Jack Webb produced television show Emergency!, which debuted on January 15, 1972. He left the show midway through the first season, because he felt that being a real life firefighter was more rewarding than playing a fictional one. He returned to the LACoFD and retired with the rank of Captain. Hammer also portrayed the Marlboro Man in cigarette advertisements in the 1970s.

I'm worried that USC will Dick Hammer Notre Dame in the Coliseum this weekend!

When you are a Hammer everything must look like a nail.
