This one I heard Sonny Osborne from The Bluegrass  Group The Osborne Brothers tell.

Chubby Wise played fiddle for Hank Snow for a number of years and sometimes Hank wouldn’t be feelin’ too good. And Chubby is on Hank’s left side and Curt Gibson is on his right side, right up against Hank. As Hank was singing, Chubby went into one of those real long bow things that fiddlers do, and the end of Chubby’s fiddle bow caught on what? Why I’ll tell you where it caught. It caught on Hank’s toupee and lifted the damn thing right off the top of Hank’s head.

I heard that Hank fired Chubby over that one and they stayed parted for a Couple of Years.

Those early Men’s Toupee’s were a sight for sore Eyes.

Think Hank would have  looked better going Full Kojak.

Thought You might get a Grin out of this one.

Not really a Newfoundland Story.But I know a lot of Older Newfoundlanders were Hank Snow Fans.
