 A Look Back

One of my favorite sit-coms of all time was Happy Days. I used a few of their scenes back on November 18, 2016 in my initial blog, Union Suit Fan.  This was posted a couple of years before I started this blog, Union Suit Fans in the Limelight.

From ABC's Season two, sixteenth episode: Crusin.'  Take a look and then find this great episode and others on Paramount+  and Pluto streaming services.

Richie Cunningham: Union Suit Fan 
In a 1975 Happy Days second season episode, entitled "Cruisin", Richie (Ron Howard) and his friends bet their nemesis that they could come up with dates by midnight. 

If not, they agreed to run around Mel's Diner in only their underwear. In due course, the boys lose the wager. Richie figured that they would lose their bet. He strips down to his union suit which he had worn for their cool late night run. The other boys strip to the boxer shorts they were wearing. And the fun began:


The Boys are Made to Strip to Their Underwear!


Notice the Boys' Argyle Socks,
Typical of the Day























Fortunately, Richie Remembered to Button
the Flap to his Union Suit!



The Boys Finish Their Underwear Run
