mayor al 2 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Actually Gabe Kaplan, star of Welcome Back, Kotter, did a one nite stand-up comedy show in the arena, the evening of 19 September, 1977. I remember the date because my son Jeffery was born earlier that day and I left the hospital in time to head the Arena Security Detail for Kaplan's show and the crew meetings before and after.

Daved Thomson 78 Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Just seeing this picture for the first time. Is this Al Bowen in the picture with Gabe Kaplan? I can't make out the name on his GA name tag, but he looks a lot like Ned DeWitt, then President of GSC/Six Flags. Coincidentally, September 1977 would have been around the time that Six Flags was in talks with GA's then current owners to buy the park. Quote Link to comment
