Any Springfield people remember the sports anchor

Ralphy Boy · 01-11-2008, 02:17 PM

that got drunk and ran from police? I think he was on KOLR 10. He pulled into the parking lot of the strip joint at Sunshine & Glenstone and tried to jump the fence by Coyotes Adobe Cafe.

Anyone?????

I vaguely remember, although I thought it was a weather reporter?

Ned the Broomstick wouldn't do that. He couldn't do that, upright.

I remember that anchor chick back in her late 20's, in the late 1970's, who thought she was hot s***. They kept the mic on going into commercial 15 seconds late, and she talked enough trash with a few choice seedy words that got her a pink slip. Speaking of pink slip, ....

Well, never mind that a college kid in his late teens would have hit it.

Ned was a puppet, not a real human.

Indeed...Ned was a straight man...he was the Ted Haggard-ist. Pre-Ted "I did a dude...a meth-head male-prostitute-dude" part...but I remember that strip club...the "pole" was a 4" pvc pipe...

But all I can come up with is the red-headed pompadore dude...Joel...something...He seems waaaay too Opie...

When I was a regular at the Springfield bars so was Ned Reynolds. He was a serious alkie.

He was actually one of the anchors. Dude looked like Race Bannon.....30 years old and white hair.

This was after the Sertoma Chili Cookoff. He and his girlfriend were there and were hammered. We saw them there and they were making out while walking along, drinking beer and eating chili...not exactly the best combination.

Anyway, he was a blond headed guy maybe named Kirk or something.

We've had our share of anchor issues in the past, Steve Larocco stalking some underage chick, Leanne Gregg being attacked in her home, Tony Beason having a head bigger than either Beavis or Butthead, Steve Grant being gay(????), Ron Hearst just being the complete reerun that he is, Ethan Forhetz being the human reincarnation of the Ken doll.

I know Steve Grant is gay. I've been to his house and met his live in lover. He's actually a pretty cool dude.

Why is everyone referring to Ned Reynolds in the past tense? He's still around and covering sports on KY3.
