Q: Johnny Carson once gave out his AT&T calling card number for free calls after winning a big legal settlement.
A: Fiction. This is a popular myth with no basis in reality; it has also been tied to Robert Redford, Burt Reynolds, and a host of other big celebrities.
This card has never been printed — and the Hollywood Edition deck never shipped
If Tall Tales returns to print, you'll be the first to know. One email — that's it.
