Hi, Back around 1980 I went to Akron, OH with my grandmother and stayed at this little hotel that had a coffee shop hooked on to it. When we checked in the lady at the desk told us that Gary ????(he played a blond haired guy who loved Lonnie Anderson on WKRP in Cinn.). I cannot remember his name. In person he was not good-looking. And her was short. Well we checked in and went to bed. That morning we went to that coffee shop for breakfast and sat on one of the bar stools waiting for our food. Just then a blonde haired man sat right beside me. It was not the guy from WKRP TV show but it was Allan Sues from Laugh-Inn. I did not recognize him at first. I just started talking to him like he was some average person. A couple of minuets later the waitress asked me if I knew who that was. Then she told me. When she told me I was afraid to say anything else. I didn't want to bug him. I didn't even ask him for his autograph. Now I could shoot myself for not getting his autograph. Well that's about it.
