And in the skyline part of the Channel 5 News Tonight open, you guys can notice that they not only removed the light borders from the Renaissance Building, they haven't put that little antenna/pyramid at the top. I believe that wouldn't come until '87.
I'm gonna guess that this was 1987, not 1986...the six-feathered peacock wasn't introduced until May-86, and the only Cowboy I can think of who might be referenced here is Rafael Septien, who got into a little trouble in Apr-87.
This sounds like April 15 to me. In the Channel 5 News Tonight part of the clip, you can see that they're talking about the midnight dash to the Post Office (which probably references to the tax-filing)
WOW! April 15, 1986: my birthday. What an odd, odd coincidence that I ran into this. Awesome!

I think Brad Wright has a PR company in DFW now. He went from KXAS TV to WBAP radio and then out of the broadcast biz.

it would be real cool to see some "old" files from Harold Taft scribbling on a map....

Harold Taft passed away in 1991. I think Bra Wright retired, and Alyce Caron went to a station in Florida.
I'm too lazy to go look it up, so does anyone know which former Cowboy Brad was talking about?
