My Grandfather (no pics) told me PMAC was opened by Bob Hope and the Supremes for homecoming in 1972. I can find NOTHING on this, any details very much appreciated...if true, Wow!

A youngster could go into the military and get an assignment in SE Asia and see them for free.

He was in the middle of 18 holes and just playing through.

But The Supremes went on without her.

I saw Diana Ross there but it was in 1982. Saw her again this year at Endymion. She hasn’t changed a bit.

I saw Bob Hope in concert at the old cow barn in 1960.

We hired Archie Bell and the Drells to play the Assembly Center after the South Carolina(iirc,) game circa 75-76

Not sure if it was the opening event, but I saw Johnny Cash at PMAC in the spring of 1972.

Right, that’s why it was Bob Hope and the Supremes.

Few people know Bob Hope was British and imigrated to the US with his parents during his youth.

That was one costly date with a Tri-Delt and I didn't so much as a bj out of it.

Fewer people know that Bob Hope was a serial philanderer and banged or tried to bang all the honeys he took on his USO tours.
