May 20, 1993 –

The last episode of the series Cheers aired on this date.
One of the last scenes shows Sam straightening a photograph on the side of the bar. The picture is of Geronimo. This is an homage to the late Nicholas Colasanto, who played “Coach” Ernie Pantusso from 1982-1985. The picture held special meaning to Colasanto who hung it in his dressing room. When he died in 1985, the picture was moved to the bar in his memory.
