    Good~ there is justice after all. Here is link to 2nd part of story, where he goes on to win it all.

    P. Potts - Part II

    Apparently he is getting his teeth fixed with part of the $1,000,000 he won. (also a fat recording contract)


    For those old enough to remember, Harry Chapin sang a song about a man much like Potts....

    Harry Chapin sings MR. TANNER Live​




    And for those really "ancient" might remember this guy--- I recall sitting thru the whole Jackie Gleason show just to listen to this garbage man sing...:p
