Probably ran out of themes!

A notable name missing was Roscoe Arbuckle, who was discovered by Sid’s brother, David, and who got his start working for Sid. Unfortunately, by the time Arbuckle’s contemporaries were putting their feet and hands in Sid’s forecourt, Arbuckle had been blacklisted (and the blacklist was officially lifted), but he still wasn’t welcome by many in Hollywood.

@Sarah: There are some Fry’s Electronics stores in Texas. Look up Fry’s Electronics in Plano Texas, it has no theme.

It surprises me more that Steven Seagal didn’t make that list of the most-viewed stars.

I didn’t know there were more than one and the fact that each one has it’s own theme reminds me of Fry’s Electronics where every store has a different theme.

Did you check any of them out on your trip to CA, they are a CA institution, or at least a Northern California one.

Ironically… Clarence “Ducky” Nash would be one of the first signatures I would be looking for if I went there…
