Right you are Sinsull. I'd forgotten about that terrible story. You've stated it exactly the way I recall. The one I was thinking of was when he (Tex)was doing weather for a small local. He was "3 sheets to the wind" and was walking to the studio with a camera crew following him. There was a Con Edison crew in a ditch. He couldn't resist stopping & calling down to the crew, YOO HOO, hello down there, whatcha' doin'? He interrogated the crew with slurred speech & almost fell in. All live, it was funny, unlike the first story.
