Hey,
I have a Patrick Duffy tale as well Back in the summer of 1980 Patrick Duffy stayed at a Hyatt Hotel I was Managing. It was standard for the Manager to greet significant VIPs.
For you more experienced folk, you may remember that this was the Summer of the famous Who Shot JR cliffhanger season finale.
Anyway, our Bell Captain gathered his luggage from the Limo and the three of us went upstairs to his Suite. I was schmoozing Duffy (really nice guy) and when we got to his Suite, I put my Master key in the door, but stopped, turned to him and said "You realize I'm not going to open this door 'til I find out who shot JR..." He replied "Well, I guess I'm sleeping in the hallway then, because we don't know, they are worling with several scripts and scenarios and we don't even know which one will be used... besides, there's a Writer's Guild strike on and we're honoring that, so until that's settled, I'm not saying anything to anyone..."
He stayed with us a week during which he asked me to dine with him one evening. A really nice, down to earth guy...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
