Seems like Scott was banned from the Playboy mansion

As I recall. Scott was the overall champion.

Scott Baio gave a very heartfelt speech at the convention. I was very impressed.

Wasn’t his routine always delivered in a shouting scratchy voice? If so, then yes he was rarely funny, as well as, annoying to listen to. But then I funny modern day comics are usually more crude then funny.

As I sit in some lonely hotel room on Long Island (with okay WiFi at least) reading articles about Chachi Arcola I feel the cold realization that my life is a toilet come over me. But then I remember that I get to go home in a couple of days! Whew!

Let's see… Wikipedia refers to "Bobcat" as having "an energetic stage persona with an unusual gruff and high-pitched voice. " I guess that's pretty close, though the voice (which has since found lots of work in the animation business) wasn't as bothersome as the way he acted as though he was barely clinging to sanity. I swear, sometimes he looked like he was about to piss his pants - and to me, that kind of crazy isn't funny.

The other guy with a shouting, scratchy voice back then was the late Sam Kinison (see his cameo in "Back to School"). Now, Sam's material was a lot more in-your-face than Bobcat's, and it certainly wasn't for everyone - but he didn't do the neurotic, whiny/shouting mental patient stuff. He just bellowed. I miss Sam a lot - he was possibly the least politically-correct comic ever to make the big time.

"Joanie STILL loves Chachi and I do, too! :)"

I can't speak about Chachi, but I sure had a crush on Joanie:

They were rather similar as I vaguely remember. Perhaps that is who SamAdams76 was thinking. I think the difference was that Sam might have screamed at certain parts of his routine, for effect. Goldwaith though screamed through the entire skit, and yes he acted like he was insane, which may have not been an act!!!

Now this guy was funny. Too bad he passed too early.

You could see that on the televised version but on the playing fields of Pepperdine, it was not that apparent. Good for Scott. Athleticism is one thing, the desire to be the best another.

#12 Everyone liked the dunking event!
Heather Locklear, Jan Smithers, Erin Gray, Lynda Carter, Catherine Bach, Heather Thomas, Cheryl Ladd, Donna Dixon, just to name a few I remember. When women were women and men and women had fun on tv.

Suggestions are always easy to give - even by those who won’t follow their own suggestions....
