Took my high school date out to see Deliverance on the Saturday it opened. When we got out of the movie and into my car and I turned the radio on guess what was playing? She thought I set her up and used it as an excuse to "freeze up" and I never got into her pants.

Fukk her, I moved on and the story got around school and actually helped me get other girls. But it is funny looking back at the situation.

You were on the very top as a superstar of the times.
Not many stars could ever say that.

RIP Burt and thanks for the memories.

EAST BOUND AND DOWN!!!!!

born in '65 he was the 1st "Movie Star" I saw on the Big Screen in 'Theaters'. Longest Yard and Smokey and the Bandit. I was hooked after seeing Deliverence.

He was an athlete,actor and a true good guy in the public eye.

With Much Respect Burt..

peace
