3George Lindsey was born in Jasper, Alabama.
4Two of his closest friends Andy Griffith's and Ernest Borgnine's both died two months after him.
5He played quarterback on the Florence State Teachers College (now University of North Alabama) football team.
6Lindsay and Academy Award winning actor Ernest Borgnine became close friends in the 20 years before Lindsay's death. Borgnine, who admitted to suffering from depression, claimed that Lindsay saved his life with his friendship.
7Attended American Theater Wing in N.Y. in 1956.

13TV Land's Star Trek (1966) marathon on November 17th, 2006, had comments by the actors. Leonard Nimoy's stunner was that Gene Roddenberry's first choice to play "Spock" was George Lindsey. He turned the part down and the rest is history.
14Appeared in a couple of musicals ("All-American" and "Wonderful Town") before heading to Los Angeles in the early 60s.
15Former high school teacher and briefly a stand-up comic.
16Disney used his talents in a handful of projects, both as comedy support in features and giving vocal life to a few of their animated characters.
17Although Lindsey has pretty much made a career out of playing variations of his most famous character, Goober from the 'Andy Griffith Show (1963)' -- a genial, good-hearted but somewhat slow-witted hick--Lindsey has a Bachelors Degree in Bioscience from the University of North Alabama and was a science teacher before deciding to become an actor.
