Caesar had Cleopatra. Tristan loved Isolde. Romeo died for Juliet. Arthur Fonzarelli (a.k.a. "the Fonz") went ape over Pinky Tuscadero. Flame-haired Pinky (played by Roz Kelly, thirtyish), came roaring into Fonzie's life on her guess-what-color motorcycle for the new season's first two shows of ABC'S hit series Happy Days.
