Vikki Carr and My Toxic Uncle

Okay in 1969 I was excited to see Vikki Carr being one of the hosts of a Thankgiving parade even tough I  had to watch it on a black and white televison, and my parents could watch their football game on their color set.

  But no,  my toxic uncle came that Thanksgiving went upstairs got the black and white televison, and place it on top of the color set and set them both on the same channel.  I wasn't excited by watching a drag out football game, I wanted to see the parade.

   Why do football games have to last so long ? Why can't they just tape the whole ballgame before showing it on tv  and  show it in 30 minute segments, day after day, like a cliff hanger ?

This is my autograph of  Vikki Carr it is not authentic but a copy.

Vikki Carr was born in El Paso,Texas and speaks  both English and  Spainish .                                                                                                click here to see and hear Vikki Carr singing.       

One August Vikki Carr was going to perform live at the Ohio State Fair, I heard the phone ringing  and assuming it may be my toxic uncle I did not answer it, I took off to the fair. God there must of been 500,000 people there watching her perform.                                    

After I watch her first show at 2 PM EDT, I fooled around the fairgrounds awhile until her second show. Did not get home until 11 PM   but I did get to see Vikki Carr performed, take that unc :P  

     

 I also bought an Vikki Carr program at the fair for $1.00 .I have no idea what happen to it.
