I lived down the street in Palatine, IL from Larry and played baseball with his son, Taber. Really enjoyed getting to know Uncle Lar for many years. He was such a character in and out of the studio. RIP to the only Superjock.
Boy, do I remember listening to Animal Stories..... In particular, I remember me & my younger brother in our backyard with a portable radio, laffing our asses off to the story about the robber & his German Shepherd.
I worked for our local humane society and ALWAYS tuned in to Animal Stories with uncle Larr and lil Tommy.There were times I simply had to pull over somewhere, because I was roaring from laughter... Those were fun days!
Memories as a teenager in Chicago. My mom's friend got into the animal stories news. She had a central vacuum cleaner, when going to vacuum the bird cage out with the bird inside, she accidentally sucked the bird into the hose and it died. OMG. RIP Larry.
Anyone in the future who visits the gravesite of Larry Lujack, might I suggest leaving a shiny new dime on his tombstone to honor the years of laughs thanks to him and Lil Tommy. Thank you for the memories and helping to develop my sense of humor as a child.
Love these thanks. For those who love these they are available on CD, not the original artwork but can be purchased online from animal stories cd dot com. They were back on the air for awhile on the 2000's and there two CDs parts 4 and 5 from this era.
Thank you so much for posting these. I used to leave study hall and go out to my car in HS to listen to these everyday. So funny, even by todays standards. I loved hearing the beginning of the show, took me back.
Rest in Peace, Uncle Lar! You an important voice of my youth! Thanks for the years of entertainment. This must have been uploaded from a real vinyl album! Excellent!
Such a sad loss for Chicago tonight... I will never forget that AWWWHOOOOOOO at the beginning of each show... Condolences to his Family. Sleep well, Uncle Lar.
my cousin in illinois has all the animal stories on vinyl, and he wouldn't cut loose of them if all hell broke loose. but i think i've got him talked into getting them burned on cd for me.
Looking out the kitchen window woman in Australia saw a giant python eating her little Pekinese dog, ran outside...... . Wow, miss uncle Lar and little Tommy ever since they made me laugh until I cried and almost crashed my car on Rte 53 in Lombard, RIP.
@MikeSobran Dude! I know what you mean! There were shows where Uncle Lar and Lil Snot-Nosed Tommy had me ROTFLMFAO with pounding on the desk (and sometimes kicking the trash can). These guys really started my day!
@@robadams8057Exactly one week before Christmas Day (December 18th) in 2013. He was 73 years old and he died from esophageal cancer. He was a heavy smoker.
does anyone know where I can find the one, I think it was 1985? They were talking about a golf course under construction in one of the Chicago suburbs. It was just an open forested area that they were clearing to build this golf course and all these poor little rabbits were running out onto the freeway and getting squashed. They started playing that audio clip from that bugs bunny episode where Elmer Fudd had his shotgun pointed down inside the hole and unbeknownst to him, bugs was standing behind him and he started this dialogue “oh you got me! Everything is getting dark. I’m gonna kick the bucket.” :)

3 or 4 Years ago I found and purchased that Animal Stories album from a used record store, here in Indianapolis ,Indiana.
I sure miss those days... Times were simpler and not crazy like now days... I hope he will be on every morning when i get to heaven...
I had this record when I was in 4th grade. I used to listen to WLS on my massive earphone radio as I did my paper route. Those were the days.
RIP Larry, thanks for all the childhood laughs. I listened to you every morning growing up.
Listened to Uncle Larr for years… had a loyal audience in Milwaukee...
TAKES ME BACK .GOOD TIMES RIDING IN THE BACKSEAT OF MY PARENTS CAR. LISTENING TO OLD UNCLE LAR AND LITTLE TOMMY. GREAT PARENTS AND GOOD RADIO .

I have fond memories of listening to this radio show with my father when I was a kid. Thanks for posting this.

Never again, will it be that cool, to be that high, that early in the morning.
RIP Uncle Lar. You're now doing morning drive in Heaven.
I’d love to have access to the entire Animal Stories archive.
What a great show.
I used to listen to "Super Jock" Larry Lujack on WLS AM 89 in Chicago before going to school.

We used to share a cup of coffee and a cig at 7-11
They were great also but Animal Stories was the best
Yes
I like the story at 4:16, funny
I want to know if the grandma started speaking different languages after her "meal"
Steve and Gary Kicked Lujacks ass
I don't remember it that way. Steve ran away when Larry confronted him about being a jack ass. Larry had to finish his show.
WHere is he buried
?
In a cemetery!
Larry Lujack Done to soon
