Soupy Sales on his show told the kids to go into their parent's rooms and mail him the green pieces of paper on Daddy's dresser. The show ended up donating a lot of money to charity because they couldn't determine who the senders were. Many people believe this to be an urban myth, but is a true story.

"Hey kids, last night was New Year's Eve, and your mother and dad were out having a great time. They are probably still sleeping and what I want you to do is tiptoe in their bedroom and go in your mom's pocketbook and your dad's pants, which are probably on the floor. You'll see a lot of green pieces of paper with pictures of guys in beards. Put them in an envelope and send them to me at Soupy Sales, Channel 5, New York, New York. And you know what I'm going to send you? A post card from Puerto Rico!"
