During the late '80s, CBS-KMOV sports announcer Zip Rzeppa would host a weekly compilation of "the best, the worst and the weirdest moments in professional sports" during the Friday night 10 o'clock newscast.
Man, I remember my parents letting me stay up late on Friday nights to watch the Zippo Awards, but of course, I usually fell asleep before they even came on, ahhh the memories.
I remember meeting Zip in the KTVI lobby and a week later got an autographed picture of him. I think I was like 10 (I'm 29 now) but I'll never forget that, or the infamous Zippos!
One of my earliest memories is watching the Zippos on Channelt 4. I think Zip was one of the reasons I wanted to get into tv, and I did. I still catch myself singing the theme song.

Manute Bol's hook is the best on this video, almost a 3-pointer hook!

The song is Root Beer Rag by Billy Joel.
