What became of this cat?

The winner of "The Lost Weekend." Surely he must've been a poster here, at one time or another...

Now almost 23 years ago. How is that possible....

That's a good question. I know he did an interview with the inside magazine back several years ago. Out.

It was 1984 and it's now almost 2007. My math tells me that's 23 years. Hard to believe it was that long ago.

Well, the best of us [old or new] have been large fans since '78 or b4...was just curious as to what became of this most-blessed individual, i.e. the one that won the "weekend..."

Right, almost 23 years since the '84 tour and that lucky bastard that won the contest. I remember it like it was yesterday. That's all I was trying to say.

How could he not be a fellow VH linker

**KRAMER5150** · 12.27.06, 01:13 PM

i remember seeing something about this guy back then,i think he had brain surgery like 2 months before he won

**Lightning Fingers** · 12.27.06, 01:21 PM

Wow, never seen that clip before. EVH's playing was raw. That guy got his 15 mins of fame. Was that Foreigner playing at the end?

Bad Company, "Rock N Roll Fantasy".

The thing that pissed me off about him winning was the footage backstage where the band was singing Happy Trails and he didn't know the words. I've always had this feeling that he wasn't all that much of a fan when he entered the contest . . . I mean, you don't know Happy Trails???? <cough>bullshit<cough>

Can some please post this on JamToThis!

You know, I just sat through five minutes looking for an actual cat, waiting for VH to do some crazy shit to it. Like throw it into the audience or make chug beer. Oops!
