Don Imus Television Debut | Good Night America (Sep 12th, 1974)

He failed to graduate from broadcast school. He was kicked off the air in Stockton California for running an Eldrige Cleaver look-a-like contest. He once called a Cleavland McDonalds during his radio show in that city and ordered 1200 hamburgers to go. When he finally made it into New York he missed his second day on the air because he as in a hotel room dead drunk. Despite this bizarre behavior or maybe because of it, he was voted billboard disc-jokey of the year. Recently he’s taken his cast of looney radio characters like the Rev. Billy Sol Hargis to the night club stage, and just to give you an idea of how he’s doing he opened up at New York’s Jimmy’s Night Club for a one week run and they held him over for the entire summer. Ladies and gentlemen please welcome an outrageously funny man and good friend of mine Don Imus.

    Geraldo has always had that same "used car salesman" vibe. Truly an interloper in media from day one.

    Band should have played "Eight Miles High" instead of that awful attempt at "City Of New Orleans" What the hell Don Imus and Mike Love were recreating on prior to the show, one can only guess.
