1984 - Crazy Eddie

Beat the heat! One of the legendary Crazy Eddie commercials, and it can never be emphasized enough that this guy is not, in fact, Crazy Eddie. He's Jerry Carroll.

Kind of odd to be hocking AC units and fans, saying "beat the heat," while wearing a turtleneck and jacket.

They didn't scam the public... As a New Yorker it was great getting good prices!

I bought my boom box from Crazy Eddie out on the Island. Got a great box, it was a JVC RCM70 and it was bad ass. It went for like $490 way back then, got it from Eddie for $295. I still remember the price even thought I was just a kid because I mowed alot of lawns for that box. I remember flipping out when I visited FLA and crazy eddie was cosmic phil and it was the same thing other then the name. I was like, thats not cosmic phil, that fuckin crazy eddie, he's crazy, his prices are insane!
