[edit] Real name?

How did we get his real name and is it verifiable? Hoodmonkey (talk) 22:19, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit

According to Chick's numerous "On Air" statements, this saying was an old family good luck saying which was said on the first day of the month. Lmcelhiney 23:56, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unattributed Information

Removed "His mother chewed her toenails in front of him," as on-air statement without verification and appropriateness of comment.

Removed "* His favorite actor is Daffy Duck" pending reference. Lmcelhiney 21:12, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photo

We could still use a pic we can freely use.--Bedford 00:37, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Chick 8x10-B&W.jpg

Image:Chick 8x10-B&W.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Third Divorce?

Several recent incidents make me curious...

Bob commented last week that the show had already broken up 9(!) marriages.

On Pole Day (May 10) Chick received a Washington Redskins memento from a visitor to the booth at the track. Kristi suggested that it could go into the "Redskin Room" if there still was one. She followed if with a suggestion that he could soon use the whole house.

Any reference to Chick's home life on air is quickly quashed.

He's been on the road a lot lately.

Could it be that his current wife has discovered some information that should have stayed on the road?

Discussion of homeless guys with dogs:

Gunner: "Well, maybe his wife said, 'The mongrel's gotta go or I'm gonna go.'"

Chick: "You take the dog!"

Guest: "...left his family of 5."

Chick: "Maybe I should have thought about that..."

ALL: "Shush, shush, shush, shush!"
