Only one Factoid this month. Since it's a quite a ride!
From the vaults of John Hart Studios, we reveal what many of you have always suspected, but never been able to confirm... till now! ;)
Did You Know -- ?
- That when Johnny and Bobby got married, he didn't have a driver's license? A 21 year old Senior Airman in the United States Air Force who had never learned how to drive a car! Following the nuptials, Johnny wanted to be in the driver's seat as he and Bobby set out on their honeymoon. They were borrowing Bobby's mother's car for their trip. So Bobby, a country girl who had been double-clutching farm trucks since the age of 12, secretly taught Johnny how to drive the week before the wedding. He was able to pass the test and got a license. The wedding day came and the family gathered outside the chapel to see the newlyweds off on their new journey together. The tossing of rice, celebratory hugs and kisses all around, joyful tears, smiles and waves, all took place as Johnny ushered Bobby into the car. Johnny got in the driver's seat, turned the key, accidentally shifted into reverse and proceeded to back straight into a huge oak tree stamping a nice big 'V' into the chrome bumper! Bobby was shaking her head and his mother-in-law staring in disbelief, so Johnny made a snap decision. He put the hammer down and got the heck outta there!
