Special Guest - Buck Shot
Saturday, November 15th, Calgary Sun posted an article written by about the retirement of this Calgary icon.
"You can't have 16 chickens and no tambourine.
Calgarians will know what that means - at least, those Calgarians who grew up here between the years 1967 and 1997, when a friendly cowboy and a ragged bear named Benny were considered cutting-edge children's entertainment.
For those who remember, suffice it to say that Benny the Bear is leaving town, and Buck Shot and Benny are finally retiring as a duo more than 50 years after Ron Barge and puppeteer Jim Lewis first suited up for the cameras at CFCN television.
"It is the end of an era, and it's a pretty emotional thing - it's going to be pretty hard to get through it," said Barge, better known as Buck Shot."
