: Has it really been 15 years? On December 20th, 1994, WLUP threw one of its strangest, wildest promotions since Disco Demolition: Danny Bonaduce vs Donny Osmond in a boxing match. It was the "Thrilla in Vanilla!" (It also had Piranha Man vs Hadji in a warm-up fight.) Who was there? Johnny B, Buzz Kilman, Bruce Wolf, Ben Bently, Leon Spinks, Jack Brickhouse and many more!

I own Bonaduce's head gear from that match. It is signed by Danny and Larry Wert. Nice piece of radio history.
