R.I.P. Soupy Sales

[Larry Sochrin]

I remember a videotape that circulated within the broadcasting world  
that had been taken at  one of Soupy Sales' TV shows where they  
surprised him by switching the usual person who had been inside the  
door that he used to open with someone else.  Those at home could  
only see Soupy Sales' reactions at the surprise, which he had to be  
careful about because it was a kids show, but those who got the tape  
could see what was inside the closet.  Does anyone else remember that?
