I don't know if you already knew this, but I found this on Cat-O-Vision from the former Garfield website:
March 2, 1987
Eyewitness News WBZ-TV Boston

The date is the same as when Wade revisited the mysterious character (from 10/13/86) that turned out to be Max the Skateboarding Bird. This means Bobby came up with Max.
