Re: Bloopers (was memories of 'RKO)



I remember listening to Sebastian on WDRC-AM Hartford in the early '80s,
when he was still playing records. One day, I noticed he was gone, so I
called the radio station. The jock told me Sebastian had been canned for
the following incident:

One of DRC's big advertisers back then was Hartford Jai Alai (now
defunct). The ad was on cart, but the jock was supposed to add a live
line: "Just off I-91. First game 8 o'clock." To which Sebastian added
"... If the players make bail!"

Sebastian was generally a funny guy back then, a far cry from his
current gig as the poor man's Imus on WZMX.
