- ~~~They were carrying a massive banner on poles to the ring with “The Fabulous Kangaroos” on it.
- ~~~As they started to enter the arena, there was a low ceiling & the banner struck it & Red started to tumble, so Al tried to catch him.
- ~~~Al Costello went over, too, so naturally, Roy tried to catch them both & all three ended up in a heap on the floor!
- ~~~They were all tangled up in the banner with their Aussie slouch hats all crooked on their heads in front of a few thousand people.
- ~~~The Kangaroos used ‘Waltzing Matilda’ as their entrance music and through little boomerangs into the crowd.
