In 1970 or 1971, Joe Garagiola was doing an ad for Smucker's jelly during the Today Show. The tag line was "with a name like Smucker's, it has to be good." He messed it up somehow and the show went to black. You could hear him in the background saying, "Christ, I'm sorry. G D it." My college room mate and I heard it while we were getting ready for class. Back then, things like that didn't happen. The next day, he read an apology on the show.
