– Notes on Interview Part 3
* George talks about areas of his carrier other than TAGS
* George taught school in Hazel Green, AL
* In TV you were expected to know your lines and be on-time
* Andy threw “Goober” in the lake.
The “Lake” George was thrown in was known as “Tarzan” lake where they filmed the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan films of the 1940’s.
* Located across Ballona Creek from the main 40 Acres backlot was a small jungle and lake set which was prominently featured in RKO’s Tarzan films of the 1940’s (from The Andy Griffith Show)

Allan, Thank you for these wonderful podcasts. It’s quite a treat to hear these interviews and I especially enjoy the opportunity to hear you and “Floyd” together. 🙂 Thank you!
Excellent, It is great to hear ole Goober talk about his experiences on the show. You just cant get this anywhere! I loved the episode where Andy looked a Goober and he just jumped in the lake. Great memories.
