RPatton Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) "Steve McQueen looks good in this movie. He must have made it before he died."- Yogi Berra In the '50s and '60 yogi worked for Yoo-Hoo. At a Yoo-Hoo convention a woman asked Yogi if Yoo-Hoo was hyphenated. Yogis' response, "No ma'am.
