Tom Wambsgans & Bill Wambsganss

 

I discovered this link when I was watching the 1958 film Teacher’s Pet.  The Clark Gsble character and another character competing for the affection of Doris Day, discuss whether Bill Wambsganss made his unassisted triple play in the ‘20 or ‘21 series.  I immediately thought of Tom Wambsgans from Succession.  I saw their names were not spelt the same, but were pronounced the same.

I wonder if some writer for Succession named Tom after Bill.
