Meadowlark Lemon was one of the best names ever in basketball. According to Wilt Chamberlain, Meadowlark was the best player he ever saw, better than Michael Jordan and Dr. J.

Plus, he shot around 50% on those half court hook shots. Now this Lemmy is a legend ...

Used to watch him every New Year's Eve in Milwaukee. I have a picture of me with him when I was a kid.

You can't hardly hear that melody without envisioning him grinnin' with ball spinnin' on one finger.

I would much rather have taken Meadowlark Lemon than Paul Lynde to block.

I was introduced to Paul Lynde by some mutual friends shortly after he did The Villian, I found him to be a very tortured soul and alcoholic who used humor to hide his pain.
