You're probably right. Here's a little...
"When the
MGM Grand Hotel opened in 1975, starring
Dean Martin, the second headline act was Shecky Greene, whose salary at one point climbed to $150,000 a week ($125,000 went to "my bookmaker," Greene cracks).
Greene says that
Jay Leno once told him that his all-time favorite joke is one Greene recounted about
Frank Sinatra saving his life.
Five guys were beating up Greene, and then he heard Sinatra say, "OK. He's had enough."
