He had an AMAZING showbiz dream!!! It’s STILL happening!!!
Regis Philbin, entertainment industry force of nature, is too courtly to shout in conversation, but he really does speak in all-capital letters. And if anyone deserves to, he DOES — and surely WILL in Chattanooga’s Life Boomers & Seniors Expo.
“What’s Chattanooga like? It sounds beautiful! But do you think people there know me well enough to see me?” Philbin asks by phone from his Connecticut home.
Despite his decades in show business, it’s endearing to hear Philbin wonder about the extent of his celebrity, which will be on full-wattage display at the fifth annual Life expo, produced by the Chattanooga Times Free Press and set for Saturday in the Chattanooga Convention Center.
