And I don't know, but I wonder what the Lions record was in games that he was hired for. I know that the Lions did some lose notable games in which he was there. Specifically, the 1984 and 1987 WDF's which the Lions easily lost.sj-roc wrote:He's basically retired these days and restricts his act to the smaller venues, minor league ballparks. The last time he was at BCP was early in Ackles' return, and I hate to say it but I don't think it was a very successful outing for him; I never got the sense that the crowd was really with him that night. His heyday is so far in the past now that I would say much of the Lions' regular fanbase these days has little to no firsthand recognition of him.almo89 wrote:The Lions should hire Krazy George just for the Western Final
In the CBC TV show What's New, there was an newscast and recap about him shortly after the 1984 WDF in which he had the 59,000+ crowd to make as much noise whenever Winnipeg was on offence, and then as soon as BC had the ball the crowd would immediately go silent.
