I do recall Svengoolie and the throwing of rubber chickens after a bad joke. I thought it was really cool living in Berwyn and the show always referencing to Berwyn. I don't recall Bishop playing the part, but do recall Rich Koz being Svengoolie. These are cool memories.

There is a T-shirt he is offering on his site/television show, 'IT CAME FROM BERWYN'

Oh my God! The Fire Alarm??? Was that around Ogden & Austin? I forgot about that place. Wasn't it open until like 5am? People came from all over after the other bars closed. I was there a few times. Wasn't it a dump?

That's the place. I think it had a red rotating-like emergency light on the outside. I was only there a few times, it was rough crowd.

Wait just a minute I resemble that remark. I actually worked there for a short time. It was hard to tell what the place looked like in the dark but when the lights were all the way up, WHOA!!

Technically Westchester...but close enough. I wonder how the folks at St. Joe H.S. are taking the news that one of their most famous alums is a sexual predator? What a terrible man to stain that school's reputation. I wish someone would remove his shameful photo from the Wikipedia posting.

My brother played baskeball with him at St. Joe's. This does not come as a real surprise.

Is this question directed toward me? To be honest, I have not followed the case. I am not defending him, but where does it say he is a "sexual predator"?

Yes....it is directed at you. Yes...it is directed at you in fun. Technically...I guess he isn't a predator, but it is fun calling him that..............all..............in...................fun.

To be honest again, I haven't stepped in Joe's since graduation. Never even picked up my senior year book. I neither love it, nor hate it and I don't know why this is.

Regardless, he was found guilty of "sexual harassment" and it's hypocritical of the school if they continue to use his name for the sake of attracting students.

BB, what year did you graduate?

My guess is 1984

'86

Brother graduated in '78. Did have a sister graduate Naz in '86.

You sound like you have ties to the LaGrange area, no?

six of us went to Naz, one to IHM and brother to St. Joe's. I still have family in the area except they go to Montini

Guess your parents didn't want you to hang with us LTHS riff raff.

Not the case at all! I grew up in Cicero and would have gone to Morton East

M,

I know a few folks who went to Naz. What year did your sister grad from IHM?

You say Cicero? Ever been to Tenmore or Chico's?
