King of the Night page 1 by ric gustafson
Johnny Carson was standing behind a multicolored curtain.
" Live from Hollywood the Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson". " Here's Johnny".
Wearing a tuxedo, Johnny stepped out from behind the curtain. In Studio 1, 500 guests stood up. They clapped, screamed and whistled. Tonight's taping was special. It was the 25th Anniversary Special. Johnny stopped at a star marked on the studio floor. Johnny looked left. There was Doc Severinsen. Johnny looked right. There was Ed McMahon.
October 1 1987started out on a bad note. A major earthquake had occured in LA. But the show went on. Johnny glanced at the audience. He had done so over 5000 times. He had become a fixture of life. Tonight over 21 million people would be tuning in to watch Johnny.
Johnny Carson was the King of the Night.
