"It was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know." RIP Mr. Charlie Pride.

Something most people don't know about Charlie: he was a hell of a baseball player having played in the old Negro League and MLB minors. From Wiki:

On June 5, 2008, Pride and his brother Mack "The Knife" Pride and 28 other living former Negro league players were "drafted" by each of the 30 Major League Baseball teams in a recognition of the on-field achievements and historical relevance of 30 mostly forgotten, Negro league stars. Pride was picked by the Texas Rangers, with whom he has had a long affiliation, and the Colorado Rockies took his brother.
