Great old shot from a Red's tournament, but who is the guy in the middle?

I know I'm supposed to know the guy in the middle, but my brain isn't working yet.

Is it "weenie bennie"?

 

[Andrew Manning]

Lorne Michaels?

That's Sid Mann. He owned the Villa Capri Hotel in Austin and put on a couple of big tournaments there in the early 1980's.
A big supporter of Pool in Texas like Red Walling. They all loved Puckett!

Jay, thanks a lot! I knew I had seen that face somewhere, but what I didn't remember was where. Now I know where I saw it! Check this program cover from one of his tournaments (I even had the image in one of my Smugmug galleries!).
