Movie trailers will never be the same.

I live in the NYC metropolitan area, and there were morning show DJs on the radio, mentioning that he was in a certain commercial shown in our area. It's a commercial for the New York State lottery, and three men are at a table in a diner. One is Ed McMahon, spouting out what his trademark call is; next to him is a man who does the same (I recognized the voice but not the man himself); the third man with them doesn't speak, but the DJs said it was Don LaFontaine. Perhaps he wasn't well when they did the commercial, but they wanted to include him in.

I agree. RIP.
