The Andy Griffith Show starring Andy Griffith and Ron Howard as Oppie
THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW CBS - October 1960 Sheldon Leonard and Danny Thomas designed The Andy Griffith Show to fit the image of its star. Andy played Sheriff Andy Taylor, the fair-minded and easygoing head lawman of the small town of Mayberry, North Carolina. Mayberry was based upon Andy Griffith's real hometown, and perhaps this was partially responsible for the strong sense many viewers got that Mayberry was a real place. When he wasn't at the Sheriff's office, Andy, a widower, was applying his old-fashioned horse sense to the raising of his young son Opie (Ronny Howard), a task he shared with his Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier). Most of Andy's time, however, was spent controlling his earnest but over-zealous deputy, Barney Fife, played by Don Knotts

Bobby Orr, incredible!!!
Bobby Orr only played in the NHL for 12 seasons (10 with the Boston Bruins) and retired when he was just 30 years old, but he certainly left his mark on the sport. Remembered as one of the all-time great defensemen, Orr showed that defensemen can also be great offensive contributors. Orr scored over 30 goals in 5 different seasons, including 46 goals in 1974-1975, and he is the only defenseman ever to led the league in scoring, a feat he accomplished twice. He won the Calder Trophy for top rookie in 1966-1967, then went on to win 8 consecutive Norris Trophies for top defenseman, and 3 consecutive Hart Trophies for the league’s MVP. Orr led the Bruins to 2 Stanley Cup Championships and is perhaps best remembered for his overtime Cup winning goal in 1970. His flying through the air while scoring that goal is one of the games, and perhaps all of sports most iconic images. Orr was elected the Hall of Fame in 1979.
