    One of my lifetime favorite comedians is someone that even most people my age would not think of today. I love success stories and when a drunkard can win fame and fortune after drying up... that is a success story. During is rise in fame, this comedian portrayed a drunk but reportedly was never drunk while doing his act. You can tell this by how he morphs back to sober walk on his way back to his seat. Lady's and gentlemen... Foster Brooks.

    He was a great one. He came every year to Ft. Wayne's celebrity golf tournament and was one of the most popular attendees among the general public. People loved him.
