I don't think he's known very well over there. I actually only know him because of his huge part in the New Year's celebrations every year. In NYC, he was just really famous.
It's going to be so weird knowing he won't be there this New Year and not having him as part of the countdown.
He was a Radio and Television/Game Show personality, so I think that's where it mostly came in. But, I mean, that was before anything I can recall!
That was a long response, but I don't even know if it's a big deal to people not near NYC like me. It might just be those who watch that specific channel for the countdown, you know?
