My Shecky Greene story 1967

as a kid working at the Eden Roc Hotel as a cabana boy Chucky Green came out in his tuxedo one late afternoon while he was performing there in the show room he went up on the high dive and into the swimming pool just for a laugh I think he had a few martinis on them at the time also I was an extra in the Sinatra movie Tony Rome filmed a couple of blocks from my house my brother and I got paid a few hundred dollars. We got to meet him along with Sinatra and the cast terrific people he was so nice he would tip as well to get him a coffee. God bless him may he rest in peace he had a nice long life

* About 40 years later I had to pleasure a meeting him again here in Las Vegas. If memory serves correct, Steve, Cutler inducted him into the casino legends Hall of Fame at the Tropicana hotel
