Bing/Bong Thursday night

Post by Gypsy In The Palace »

During Bing/Bong Thursday night, I would have sworn JB say that he had heart surgery. Did I dream that, or did anyone else hear it?

If I heard that correctly, I am glad to see that he is apparently doing just fine. It sure looks like he hasn't missed a beat (no pun intended)

I didn't hear it but you can download the interview from the link below and give it another listen. Very interesting if it's true. Certainly no reason to believe it's not possible.

Jimmy talked about a preshow meet & greet, he said his heart surgeon was there. (Utley repeated it in the background,too) So, I don't think it was recent, but somewhere along the line he had a procedure done. Makes sense, since he probably had it done in New York and his doctor would come to the Jones Beach show.

I'm somewhat disappointed that this information wasn't on BN when it happened. I thought we had moles just about everywhere. :lol:

Just because you have a heart surgeon does not mean you have had surgery. I have a heart surgeon and he's never cut me open. Yet....

I find it very hard to beleive that he would have had any sort of major surgery and something not come out.

He also mentioned his anesthesiologist was at the meet and greet. Didn't he make mention of a "tune up" a while back? Also, now you can have heart surgery without it even being considered "major" surgery. :o

SGH, I remember that, and at the time, I thought it probably had something to do with the fall in Australia. But, putting two and two together, I am betting you are right. Most importantly, I am just glad that whatever the case was, he apparently is doing just fine. His tours kept right on going, he seems just like himself, and none of us ever knew it. That is an obvious sign that everything went well.
