Then I asked who in the room knew who Bob Hope was, and it was just an uncomfortable silence. Finally one of the girls said I KNOW... He operates the airport in Palm Springs!

Rather than correcting her (pointlessly) I replied.... That's right! Just like John Wayne runs the Orange County Airport.

She was very pleased with herself, so why fight it?
At least she knew about the airport!
A comedian who's been dead for 15 years and not relevant since before we were born, i understand not knowing about.

Carolina Panthers season ticket holders still get em, and they tend to have a nice picture collage spread across them.
