A MESSAGE: ‘ROYAL ORDER OF REGEN BURGERS’ 1966

A WKNR MESSAGE FROM THE BURGER CLUB: R.O.R.B. 1966

 

 

THE BURGER CLUB

___

The Royal Order of Regen Burgers

*****

If you were just one of the hundreds of thousands who signed up to be a member of the “Burger Club,” you made it a point to stay tuned nightly to the Scott Regen Show.

The popular Keener 13 deejay “Scott Burger” (whose picture bore on the card as well) would call out a selected member’s number (printed on the card; registered to the card holder) for various station prizes and cash giveaways for Burger Club members — exclusively — listening to his 7-10 nightly show in 1966 and 1967.

___

A special THANK YOU to KATHLEEN DUFF (formerly R.O.R.B Member), of Melvindale, Michigan, for recently sharing this WKNR (1966) memory with Motor City Radio Flashbacks! 🙂
