Ringo is living proof of two old adages:

1) It's better to be lucky than good

2) There's no substitute for being in the right place at the right time.

But, he was more fab with the girls than Pete Best

Apparently, Ringo had quite the following before he joined the Beatles.

The story goes that just before the Beatles hit it big, John and Paul decided that Ringo would bring more heartstruck chicks into the audience than their oiriginal drummer, Pete Best. So they fired Best and took on Ringo.

If you ever saw a picture of Pete Best and compared him to Ringo, you'd have to wonder whether John and Paul were dropping acid even back then
