KAAY & THE ELEGENTLY APPOINTED BLUE GOOSE

The original Blue Goose was at 8th and Izard accross the street from KTHV.KAAY, at that time was located on the 2nd floor of the Channel 11 building. Howard Watson, known as Ken Knight on KAAY started referring to the "elegently appointed Blue Goose". He built on this illusion for the listeners by describing the LR elete arriving for the floor show.Night after night to 40 states and 19 foreign countries he painted a vivid picture of a great night club with floor shows and all the trappings. Of course locals knew there were only two tables in the Blue Goose and those were usually taken by George Moore or other KTHV celebreties. The bar-b-que was great and the beer coldest in town.One evening a couple appeared at the door looking quite bewildred and lost. Come to find out they were from Wisconsin and had called trying to make reservations for the floor show. Or course the Blue Goose owner and help were completely oblivious to all that was going on. By proping open the control room door and looking out the windowed stairway, "the wierd beard" could see all that was going on and verbally fanticize even more.
