Thanks for sharing. What an icon and one of the funniest people ever. His interviews on The Tonight Show were truly classics.

A few clips...

Someone told a story about how he was a master of the button that muted the microphone.  They went to see him in the booth while he was doing the game, and he'd be doing the play by play, and the stuff that came out of his mouth between calling the plays would have gotten him thrown off the air, except he always hit the mute button with perfect timing.

Ah, I found one.  

No one uses the cough button like Brewers legend Bob Uecker

He was also one of the original Miller Lite pitch men.  He was awesome in these. 

Check out the (unknown at the time) actor that buys him the beer in the last clip.
