Not sure if serious. The "Voice of the Crimson Tide" that roughly coincided with Ferguson at LSU?


Yeah, that made me skeptical too, but this info comes from someone who should be unusually knowledgeable on this subject. Also interesting is this Advocate article. Zeanah Obit

In the mid 70's we used to hang out at The Pastime Bar. I guess it is still there. Funny thing was who sat where. From 2 to 5 were old retired guys who had their special seat at the bar. Younger crowd showed up after 6 and John Mahaffey and Sid Crocker would show up from 7 to 9 after their 6 o'clock news show and before their 10 o'clock show. They were pros as you could not tell they had been drinking.

Also, there was a time when Sid did commentary on the in studio wrestling shows.
