Dan Gross Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Obscure celebrity, but celeb nonetheless... http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050222/latu091_1.html I remember catching his ramblings at times late at night. Back in the day when the TV had a separate UHF dial, and there's was a difference between UHF and VHF.... Not your everyday televangelist, that's for sure... RIP, Dr. Scott.

Hogboy Swine Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I used to call his show all the time I loved that show. Back around the late 80's when all those TV preacher scandals were running hot in the news, I would call EVERY night for about a week. Remember those goofs he had in the background manning the telephones like the Jerry Lewis Telethon? Some of them even wore cowboy hats I would claim that I was going to make a big donation, but I wanted them to assure me that he was not using the donations to enrich himself. they would go on to tell tell me how honest and humble he was until I asked "What kind of car does he drive"......They would get evasive and I would say something smart-assed. After about a week of this, one of the call takers said "Don't call here anymore" and I just kept saying "What kind of car does he drive". Finally the guy said "Do you know what you are?" And I said "No, tell me what I am" And he said You...you....you..you...YOU ARE AN !@#$" That was before I had the intrnet to amuse myself. I also used to call Larry King and Jim Bohannon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerball Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Wow, I had to google him for a pic to be sure I was thinking of the right guy. I haven't seen him in many moons. My guess is he died a rich man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mphs mike Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I haven't seen him in years. It was great when he'd get mad at the audience because the phones weren't ringing and he'd refuse to preach until a certain dollar level was pledged! I never did get my "no obligation" pyramid power book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGTEleven Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I also used to call Larry King and Jim Bohannon 249338[/snapback] Thanks for the clarification. I always wondered whether it was Jim Bohannon or Jimbo Hannan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
