ILOSM family make some noise if you remember the kid who stowed away in “Lamont’s” truck in that “Sanford and Son” episode! He was the kid who lied and said his Mom was working all night, so “Lamont” and “Fred” let him spend the night at their house. At first “Fred” hated the thought of having a kid stay at their home, because he said kids were like cats and if you feed them they’ll keep coming back, but eventually he took a liking to the kid.

The kid’s name on the show was “Jason,” but in real life his name is Lincoln and not only have we found Lincoln today, but wait ’til you see who his Pops is.
