Television Character JR Ewing

Examiner.com had this interesting headline. Here’s what they reported:

Tourists flocked to Southfork Ranch inDallas, Texas on Saturday Nov. 24 after news broke that Larry Hagman, the actor that played the famous television character J.R. Ewing on the iconic 1980s hit show “Dallas”, died the day before.

His popularity on the 1980s hit television series “Dallas” made the Texas town world-famous, but where was the recently deceased actor really from? More importantly, where was he living in the months and weeks before his death? Not in Hollywood, surprisingly enough. He died in the oil town that he seemed to love best — but not at Southfork.
