John Wayne Pulled Out His FATHER'S WATCH On Live TV — What He Said Left Johnny Carson Speechless
For thirty-nine years, John Wayne carried a secret in a drawer at home — his father's pocket watch, and the last promise he ever made to a dying man in 1937. On October 14th, 1976, the day after standing outside his childhood home as it was prepared for demolition, Wayne walked onto The Tonight Show and finally told America the truth about the gentle, failed pharmacist father he had spent five decades building an entire career in opposition to. What he said — and what he did with that watch the following week — reveals the real story behind the toughest cowboy in American cinema.
