Does He Need Money This Badly???
Filed under: Old People > Z List
South Carolina realtors aren't the only one's who'll get to experience the magic of Henry "the Fonz" Winkler.
The Fonz will appear at the 9th Annual DuPont Hot Hues Syracuse Nationals hot rod show July 18th to 20th at the New York State Fairgrounds.
Luckily, the Fonz won't have to endure the crowds alone. Cindy Williams, who played Shirley in the 70's sitcom Laverne and Shirley will be there, too!
Those 70's TV stars are so resourceful! Money doesn't grow on trees, right?
He's got mortgage bills to pay!
At least they aren't bugging Ron 'Richie Cunningham' Howard for movie roles.

It's cash in pocket.
Get paid, Fonzie. Get paid.
I never really understood why they chose a short, wimpy little Jew to play a studly, Jimmy-Dean character like Fonzie. I guess the answer is that the whole show was run by Jews so they chose one of their own to keep their monopoly!!
TMZ PUT THAT UP YESTERDAY FAT ASS MARIO
PEREZ you are even more phoney than the woman you dream of being PARIS. This guy has more brains in the SMEGMA he wiped off his Johnson this morning during his shower. P.s. For PEREZ'S information a shower is where people allow water to wash down onto their body as they soap and rinse it off to get clean. He is a decent guy who doesn't make a living ridiculing others and filling his web pages with an overflow of black shinanigans and foolishness. Your not fit to wipe the dust from his feet. The guy could buy and sell your nasty azz a million times over if he never worked another day. He Is Somebody, He Is Entertaining, He Is Generous, He Is A Gentleman, and PEREZ is not even one of these.
Hey a hot rod show is pretty cool, though. Way cooler than the realtors convention.
YO HOMOOOOO
kfc tastes so good, makes you wanna slap yo momma!
Poor Fonza-rella!
KFC TASTES SO GOOD, MAKES YOU WANNA SLAP YO MOMMA!

Guess what guys- this will happen to you too. We'll see how you handle it when the time comes
in 20 years, no one will pay you a dime to appear at an event.
This isn't true at all. He is doing quite well financially. He has a group of small business that are very successful and a string of best selling children's books. Do your reseach before you plaster a nice guy's image.
hey mario lavender boy, you didnt grow up withe laverne and shirley and happy days, i dont want to be one of the older ones who says tv was so wholesome and clean, cuz i like whats on now, but at 43 i can say, what do you know about has been celebs, you are so bad you have to use hilton as your moniker to have anyone notice you, i see they got you on wikipedia, blah blah blah. i havent been trashing you or any of the stuff you put up, but you are a sorry ass wanna be i couldnt get an acting job asshole.
Where would the world be without Perez appointing himself god and critic of All Work That Other People Get. Getting paid to attend a Hot Rod show is a double bonus for Guys That Love Cars.
Are you retarded? Do you know how much money you can make for a speech that last's less then an hour?
Look, there is NO DENYING that this man is a class act! He might have been "successful" prior to most of your "official/printed/respected/acknowledged" timeframe. But nonetheless, he WAS a GREAT TALENT! Henry Winkler deserves respect, admiration and, in my opinion, ADORATION! Whoever doesn't "get it", they just are not worthy!!!! :*)
A real man is never too big to sweep the floors if they need it.
I sincerely doubt he's too needy for money…after Arrested Development, I wouldn't be surprised if he had a role in the upcoming film. Plus he has a popular line of children's books. He's probably just doing this because he wants to! Get over it, Perez.
MOTHER OF GOD WHAT HAPPENED?

TIME DID NOT DO HIM WELL!
Get a clue. Winkler has money. He was a producer on MacGyver amopng other TV shows.
All I know is this:
I would show up for Henry Winkler's Hot Topic clothes line.
HENRY WINKLER WAS THE "IT" GUY IN HOLLYWOOD FOR SO MANY YEARS DURING THE 1970'S AND THE EARLY 1980'S BECAUSE OF "HAPPY DAYS." HE WAS IN ALL THE TEEN MAGAZINES. EVERYTHING WAS FONZY/WINKLER FOR SO MANY YEARS. EVERYONE WANTED TO BE LIKE HIM. HENRY WINKLER WAS SO POPULAR HE DREW MASSIVE CROUDS WERE EVER HE WENT. ONE OF FONZY'S LEATHER JACKETS IS IN THE SMITHSONIAN MUSEUM IN WASHINGTON DC
MOST OF THE PEOPLE THAT POST ON HERE WERE MOST LIKELY NOT EVEN BORN DURING HIS INCREDABLE POPULARITY. HIS APPEAL IS GENERATIONAL.
Henry Winkler could buy and sell Perez with a nod of his head. Check out his IMDB profile; it's pages and pages and pages long with shows that he's directed, produced or acted in. These speaking gigs and hot rod gigs give you a reason to get up and dressed up, are fun to attend, keep you connected with people and things other than acting, and getting paid to go on top of it is gravy. Henry Winkler is not too good for anyone or anything, which is why people generally adore him.
KFC is hiring…..
come on they don't have anything better to do. Why not. I happen to like the "Fonze".
WTF did Henry WInkler ever do to you? Did he call you a bulbous headed human butt plug? If so, god bless him. Is it a crime for him to make a few extra bucks on the weekends? No, much like it's not a crime for you to pound male cornholes and drop Cincinnatti Bow Tie's on random dude's in dark alley's.
I'm going.

He looks like the Grinch
I used to have The Fonz knee-high socks when I was in elementary school. I thought I was the shit.
I'm also a Realtor in SC who WON'T be going to our annual convention to hear him speak. Everyone in our office was laughing about it!
Leave the Fonz alone. Christ we all know that in 30 years you'll be begging to suck cock for a triscut with cheesewiz fatty……….wait, your throbbing meat pipe loving ass already does it for free. So lets just hope the AIDS kicks in sooner than later.
Aayyyyy…sit on it.
I am a real state broker and it is not unusual for famous people to speak at these events. Jay Leno did it two years ago and Bill Clinton did it 3 years ago. Most of the time, the speakers have nothing to do with real estate. These were obviously larger conventions but the smaller the convention the less celeb you get - just saying. It's called public speaking. I bet anyone here would speak for 20 minutes for thousands of dollars if they had the chance.
i don't wanna get old! :[
WHY NOT! A gigs a gig. I'd do it if I were him. Back off boogaloo.
What is your fuckin problem. Leave Henry alone. He is a great man, father, and educator. You are a fat, pathetic loser who feels better by making other people feel like shit. I'll say it again, for the second day in a row, your a fat fuck!!!!!!!!!!
Re: wannabeaballa – "You don't wanna get that old"? The only way it's not gonna happen is if you jump into your freezer right now, and close the door behind you. Actually, it's pretty good to get older. You know the things you need to know to get what you need, you generally like yourself, and humor and true friendship replaces giving a shit about the wrinkles, if things are going well.
Henry Winkler? I'd do him.
Re: Urgay – comment #34 - ROFL. I dub yours my favorite writier's pick clever comment of the day.
He's actually a pretty successful children's book author. I would imagine that selling books through Scholastic is bringing in plenty of cash. I've seen him speak, too. Not bad at all!
WHAT HE NEEDS IS AN APPOINTMENT WITH A BARBER !!!!!!!!
Perez you must be kidding with this story .Do you live in the real world.The idea that he has a brain and knows how to be business savey is foreign to you ? You are going to be broke soon fool.
They don't want to end up like Ed Mcmahon. That's understandable.
Come on, he deserves some respect.
Mario, maybe he's doing it because he is a genuinely nice guy; something you would know nothing about. So why don't you shut your big, fat piehole and go suck a dick, you disgusting, hypocritical, fat fuck.
He looks like Beaker from the Muppets in this shot.
Oh "Perez"(Carlos), I can't WAIT to see how time affects your "career". What, was it one appearance on NIP/TUCK in a one-line "cameo" that was the extent of your Hollywood career (BWAHAAHAHAHA) so far? Yes, that will surely get you in the Smithsonian (just like Henry Winkler). YOU'RE A SHAM - and all of the visitors to your site see right through you! So sad for you.
The deal is this - a gig is a gig. All he has to do is go up in front of a random crowd and talk about being Henry Winkley, being "The Fonz" and talk about his time on "Happy Days" and a few bad Adam Sandler movies he was in… plus assorted random Hollywood stories (of which, he has TONS - I'm sure) and he gets a load of cash. What's the problem? Who would do that? I sure would.
By the way, Carlos - I included my actual email address in this post (normally it's "none@none.com"… why do you even require an email address in this day and age???), in case you want to contact me for some future deal. Since I'm one of the few that seem to put you in your place accurately and call you on your bull_shiate. Maybe there's some TV deal in the works where you need a ying to your lame-ass yang.

you really are a slime ball!henry is a motovational speaker and a well paid director.you are s—!
GO SYRACUSE! WOOHOOO
Hey I live here in Syracuse and you should know this is the Largest Gathering of Classic Cars on the East coast. This is what it is about the classic cars and the Time they represent. And the Fonz was part of that time even if it was only a TV show. As for needing money he does not need it. He is doing this for Shits and Giggles
Doubt he's hurting for cash, every 8 year old that I teach wants to read his, "I Got a D in Salami" or "Niagara Falls Forever." Winkler has a very successful line of children's books Mario, perhaps you should read one? I also LOVED him on Arrested Development, damn I miss that show, it was perfection. Three seasons was just too short.
two words…. haircut! NOBODY wears thier hair like that AAAAAAAAAAAAAYYY
OMG I used to be in love with him when i was 12! He has not aged well!
He's a really good children's book writer too. He has a whole series that kids LOVE!
AAAAAyyyyyyyyy!
I'm going to the nationals and I can't wait to meet him!
Dude…dye his hair platinum blonde and he looks like "Nature Boy" Ric Flair!
you should do some research once in a while before you post.
henry winkler's making tons of $$ off his children's books Hank Zipzer. It's always on the bestseller lists. Guess you don't read the NY Times?
He is the Fonz. Back off, toad.
stfu i live in syracuse.. so going.
He and Cindy were here in Dallas at a very small car show a few months ago… I found it odd that they would be here and there wasn't anyone around the table to get a signed picture. It was a very sad thing to watch!
I live in the cuse and his picture is posted all over the place. it's so sad:( my 12 year old nephew asked who he was and I told him about happy days and he said they probably couldn't get anyone from this generation to come here!
His published speaking fee is $50K-$100K. Considering he started out making $750 an episode on Happy Days and got an increase to $80K per episode, he's not doing too badly. I'd wet myself if I could make $100k for an appearance than might last just an hour. Hell, I'd wet myself if I made $100K a year!
I saw the Fonz in Cambodia back in Oct. 2006. We were walking around Angkor Wat and there he was, getting his picture taken with some middle aged tourists. He's short, I'd say about 5'7.
Let's see where your demand is in a year
