Very nice pictures Gary. They brought back 2 memories I have of Ralph.
The flat screen tv picture reminded me of how he used to make Rusty Staub get so upset when he was smoking his cigar in the broadcast booth. Made Rusty nuts. First thing I did when I saw that picture was look for a cigar.
Also, for some reason, made me think of a game I was at in the late 80's. I am eating Cracker Jacks and my prize was a Rainbow Viewer. It was just a junky piece of cardboard with different colored cellophane in the middle. You looked through it and when you twisted it, you saw different colors. Well the next day, I am at home watching the game and Ralph was distracted and missed a play. The other broadcaster in the booth was confused and wanted to know what Ralph was doing. He spent the rest of the inning explaining that he was looking through his Rainbow Viewer that he just got in his Cracker Jacks.
