Was Frankie In Battle of the Bulge?
[edit]Interesting...I just watched the Biography Channel show on WEird Al Yankovic. I was surprised that Al's father was a war hero (Silver Star, battle of the Bulge, WWII)...but interestingly, the article here on FRANKIE Yankovic states that HE was in the same battle. Either someone got the Yankovic's confused, or we have one of the strangest coincidences in war. Frankie and Nick Yankovic were only a couple of years apart in age. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.106.127.190 (talk) 07:22, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Baby Doll Polka Club at 74th and Western Av in Chicago?
[edit]Does anyone else remember seeing Frankie and his band appear regularly at the Babydoll Polka Club in Chicago In the 50s? I grew up three blocks from there in the 50s and my mom, dad and grandpa would often go there and bring me along. I never appreciated Frankies talent until recently. 2600:1702:1010:15B0:B908:5FC8:4CB0:D3BC (talk) 05:39, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
This has nothing to do with updating the article, but...
[edit]We as Wikipedians should colloquially call this man "Frankovic". Evrstz (talk) 23:18, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
