The Great One: A Stoop Hall of Famer

YouTube

Jackie Gleason is a true Stoop Hall of Famer. (I used to ask cab drivers: Who gave you your biggest tip? Jackie Gleason was a name I heard over and over.) Three years before he died, Gleason was interviewed on 60 Minutes. If you watch the interview below, you will see how the Stoop shaped his life and inspired his timeless characters.

This is the Jackie Gleason "60 Minutes" interview from 1984.
