WOW!! You know your trivia!
Also liked this movie,including the great music esp.Joe Buck Rides Again.
'Orange Juice on ice,that's nice'
There was a billboard with funnyman Johnathan Winters.
I seen on youtube in an opening scene there is a billboard/movie advertisement but can never make out what movie it is?

I always look for product logos?

Good ones too.

I used a word that they beeped out so forget the question. I think the answer was provolone. Back then you could use the word and they didn't beep it out.
