Man, those who didn't grow up here REALLY missed out!!! I always wanted a Ladmo bag, but never got one, never even got to go to the show. A few years ago, there was a Wallace & Ladmo special on tv that showed clips of old shows. I was sitting in my living room with tears streaming down my face. My hubby, who grew up in Montana, thought I was insane.

Side note: Does anyone here know if there ever has been or will be old Wallace & Ladmo shows on VHS or DVD? That's one show I'd pay a pretty penny to own re-runs of, just for the memories!!!!!

They were showing the reruns for awhile on Cox channel 13. KAZ I think it is. I don't know if they still do.

I still do not know if Gerald was a male or female.

I'll have to check out the dish guide to see if they still show the re-runs! THANKS!

Oh, and btw, Gerald was a male! Pat McMahon played him. (Although, his character was pretty "confused" it seemed! I remember asking my mom if Gerald was a boy or a girl when I was a kid! LOL!)

I was on the show, got a Ladmo bag, saw them around town at several functions, saw them at the old Compton Terrace which was located at Legend City, and actually met/knew Ladmo through my friend and his folks (they ran Ladmo's restaurant during its brief stint in Mesa).

I've still got most of the framed photographs from Ladmo's Restaurant. They are of Wallace and Ladmo pictured with a variety of celebrities (Ali, Michael Landon, etc.). Time for eBay!!

Wallace and Ladmo had a celebrity draw.... Anybody who was anybody came on that show. It was amazing!

CQ

Well, I am 100% jealous! LOL! I was kinda on the young side of the Wallace and Ladmo fans. I was only 12 when the show went off the air. That and living in BFE as a kid (aka, New River) I never even got a chance.

You could make a small fortune on ebay with all that memorabilia!!!!! Make sure to post on here if you ever decide to list it!

I definitely will. So far I have all of the pictures from the restaurant except for two. I gave two sports-related photos to Mark Asher when he got married. He was floored. One had W&L and Willie Mays and the other might have been Ali...not sure. He said he was going to put them in his game room.

OT: Just curious, CQ...have you ever checked out http://www.dealexpert.net ??

It could easily become overwhelming! I'll bookmark that site and check it out sometime! Thanks!

It was an Old West themed ammusment park that shared a boarder where Phoenix Municiple Stadium still stands. It was Arizona themed so there was a Lost Dutchman ride, roller coaster and Wallace and Ladmo played there all the time. The place was fun

Also, Pets on Parade is still on, and they still have the cheesy theme song
