7. Didja ever hear the audio of Harry talking about ballgirl Marla Collins?
Edited on Tue Aug-09-05 12:58 PM by XNASA
It was a cold day at Wrigley and Marla wore long pants for the first time. On live TV, Harry said, "And there's Marla Collins. This is the first time we've seen her without her shorts on."

At which point, Harry and everyone in the booth started a 3 inning gigglefest. It was hilarious.

12. My favorite Harry moment:
It was spring training around '91 and Steve Stone was talking in depth about the key to the Cubs having a successful season. To which Harry replies, '(Scoff) Huh! The only key I know is WHISKEY!'

RIP to a great one!

13. Being a Twins fan (Amercan League and all)
I never watched that many Cubs games--but Harry was one of a kind. Or maybe just the last of a breed. RIP indeed.
