R.I.P. Gallagher the "Sledge -O- Matic" Comedian

[RichGuy]

The great and funny comic Gallagher has passed away at 76. He was in hospice in Palm Springs after suffering health problems. He'd had several heart attacks in the past, one which was while performing onstage.

I saw him performing before he became famous, he was doing his Sledge-O-Matic act with a push cart in Knott's Berry Farm just before becoming famous attracting small crowds at the amusement park.

RIP Gallagher

He had a great talent for entertaining. Such a seemingly simple idea, just smash stuff with a cartoonishly large wooden mallet, but then the magic was his gift to gab with the unsuspecting, initially, then with the one's who knew what they were in for.
