He would interview kids on the birthday shows and I remember he was asking everyone “do you have a favourite hockey player?” My 4 year old answer - “Calgary”. Buckshot loved that answer! Huge Flames fan and a staple of many lunch hours and kids days at the Stampede.

Loved by many and even though he hasn’t been on tv for several decades he left a mark on many! RIP.
Oh my God...so many memories of McDonald's 'Orange Drink.'

Bottle Drives, BBQs...they should sell that stuff in Juice Boxes. I'd buy it.

"Is it Orange Juice?" No. Not really. It is technically orange, in colour, but I wouldnt bet that any actual Oranges were harmed in it's creation.
