Four stars, Anson Williams (Potsie), Don Most (Ralph), Marion Ross (Mrs. Cunningham), Erin Moran (Joanie) and the estate of Tom Bosley (Mr. C), are suing CBS claiming they’ve been cut out of merchandise and "Happy Days" slot machine revenues.
So, who got the proceeds from my $5.99 "Happy Days" lunch box that I bought?
This report’s all over today. New York Daily News, CNN, Washington Post and a ton of other sites.
Wait. "Happy Days" slots. Cool! "It takes a lot to make me angry because so often my expectations are so low," Ross told CNN. "But the other day someone came up to me and said, 'You must be cleaning up on those casinos.' And I said, 'Well, what are you talking about?' And he said, 'If you get five Marions, you get the jackpot."'
For now, according to reports, Henry Winkler (Fonz), Ron Howard (Richie) and Scott Baio (Chachi) aren’t included in the suit.
