When it comes to grand entrances, Mayor Oscar Goodman is the king.
At 6 tonight, he is arriving on the ride of all rides: K.I.T.T., the iconic talking car from David Hasselhoff's hit 1980s show "Knight Rider," will come down Fremont Street balanced on two side wheels.
It's known as the ski stunt and the last time it was seen on Fremont Street was 1971, when a yellow Mustang performed the maneuver during a race scene in the James Bond flick "Diamonds Are Forever."
K.I.T.T., a customized Shelby Mustang, will deliver Goodman to a First Street stage, where he will join 18 celebrities and designate Saturday as Knight Rider Festival Day. Some 50 K.I.T.T. cars, including the new one that appears in NBC's new "Knight Rider" series, will be on display on Fremont Street. Among the celebrities will be Justin Bruening, the star of the new series, and Catherine Hickland, who appeared in three episodes of the original series while engaged to Hasselhoff. The original "Knight Rider" ran from 1982 to 1986.
