Subject: RE: BS: Worst Miscasting: Actual and Feared
Back in the 50's when I was living in Wisconsin and the Milwaukee Braves were in their prime, someone started a rumor that Eddie Matthews was going to play Tarzan in a new movie. When he came to bat, he'd be greeted with the Tarzan call... Ahhheeeyahhh! Apparently Eddie was sense of humor deprived, because it really got to him...:-)

Actually, not a bad casting choice, come to think of it. :-)
