Bodybuilder Gene Hill inspects the bicep of WMBR Radio personality Tommy Tucker during a bodybuilding competition at the old bandshell at Jacksonville Beach in the early 1960’s. You can tell by the cigarette in Tucker’s hand that the event was all about healthy living.

    Can’t help but notice the cigarette in M. Tuckers hand. Cigarettes kill as many people today as does Alcohol, but we still don’t get it.

      He was my dad. He put down the cigarettes in the early 80s. I fondly remember going to the wrestling matches on Wednesday nights with my daddy … I thought he was cool.

        Cathi,
        I went Lake Lucina School with your brother. We were best friends. Where is he today?

    And I remember Tommy Tucker announcing the weekly wrestling matches at Jacksonville Coliseum.
