Don't know how they'll ever be able to top the Meadowlark Lemon/Geese Ausbie/Curly Neal era.

I was looking at tickets and it turns out that they have watered it down so much that they have 3 shows in 3 different cities today.

Agreed.

Taking my boy to see them in Laffy tomorrow, and still expect it will be plenty good.

I would think it is still an alright kids show, not the starpower they used to have though but you don't see as much about them as you used to.

robert parish and edmund lawrence could have brought lsu basketball to great prominence a lot faster for dale brown had they come to lsu together as high school seniors. edmund ended up with the g-trotters and of course parish played in the nba for 47 years.

Not only could they play and perform, they also solved mysteries in their spare time with Scooby-Doo. I think it's a lot to ask of anybody to follow that group.
