Has it really been 56 years since Gloria kicked Felix out of the house? The show premiered in the fall of 1970, thus this would have been set the year before on Nov. 13, 1969.
Narrator: Bill Woodson of “frozen tundra” Ice Bowl fame.

Hey, @wdrbnews.bsky.social. What happened to the first 30 seconds of the 4th quarter? The break after the third quarter lasted 3 min 15 sec. I believe it is supposed to be 2 min 45 sec. There was a station in Pittsburgh that oversold NFL games and paid dearly for it. #karma @nflonfox.bsky.social
