Flashback
to 1986 when the Gridiron Show cast joined Senators Al Gore and Jim
Sasser at the Memphis in May Bar-B-Que Contest to promote our annual
political roast. We've been raising money for scholarships to several
mid-south area universities since the early 1920's.
Numerous
local politicians, including Tennessee Govenor Ned McWherter and Shelby
County Mayor Bill Morris, joined in as we performed our salute to
Bar-B-Que, live on WHBQ-TV.
The Gridiron Show cast also
performs the "Porno Rock Blues" for the future Vice President. The song
spoofs Tipper Gore's efforts to establish a music industry rating
system.
Political reporter and Gridiron President, Terry Keeter
(1938-2005), was in his element, surrounded by Politics, Bar-B-Que and Beverages.
Meanwhile,
Mary Nell Sasser and Gridiron cast member Bettye Chapman encounter a
man with a wardrobe malfunction - and they point it out to him.
