Sholar and Shannon are most known around the St. Louis area together for their commercials for Fast Eddie’s that they did for years.

He was the best high school athlete from around here and the same when he became a Cardinal baseball player and then for 50 years he was behind the microphone of the Redbirds. He had such a big booming personality, you had to just put a microphone in front of him.” Sholar and Shannon were very close and even spent time in Major League baseball spring training in Florida together.
