I've Got a Secret - Soupy Sales demonstrates the fine art of pie throwing

I havent seen this clip on any YT sites after searching +"Soupy Sales" +"I've Got a Secret", so I figured I'd do it myself. So in the words of Soupy, "If it turns up on other channels, you seen it here first, folks!".

In this clip, Soupy, identified as 'Mr X' plays with his secret, 'In the past 7 years I've had 14,000 pies -- Thown in my face!' . Afterwhich he and Gary go center stage to allow Soupy to explain the art of pie throwing.

Wow, None of the panel knew who Soupy was at that point. had to be early years.

@BusterTV1 According to the secret it had been seven years to that point that he had been doing it. Worst of all, poor Henry had worked with Soupy and had forgotten him. :)

@BusterTV1 But how many know Soupy's sons, Hunt and Tony Sales, were in a 1960s' garage band called Tony & The Tigers, and that the young Saleses played with Iggy Pop on the '77 tour in support of Pop's "Lust For Life" LP, as well on David Bowie's Tin Machine tours??

Gary and everyone on the panel should have gotten a pie in the kisser.

How does one thank you enough for taking the time to record and post this great video?  Absolutely amazing! I'm a big fan of class TV programming and seeing this segment from I've Got a Secret, including Garry Moore and all the familiar panelists, was precious, not to mention seeing Soupy Sales at such an early phase in his career. A very warm and sincere "Thank you" to Roy for sharing this for all to enjoy. We all appreciate it tremendously.

How strange to think there was actually a time when the panel didn't know who Soupy was!!! What a gem this clip is; many thanks for posting!
