Ware was among the outspoken [[conservative]]s of talk radio. He was not always accurate in his predictions, as in 1992 when he claimed that then [[U.S. President]] [[George Herbert Walker Bush]] would defeat [[Bill Clinton]] based in part on overwhelming Bush support in a KTSA opinion poll. In the 1970s and 1980s, Ware co-hosted with Jud Ashmore ''The Ricci and Jud Show,'' a rowdy morning program on the old country station KBUC. The two sometimes picketed San Antonio City Hall over controversial matters.<ref name=waredeath>{{cite web|url=http://www.mysanantonio.com/entertainment/article/San-Antonio-radio-legend-Ricci-Ware-dies-10060311.php|title=San Antonio radio legend Ricci Ware dies|author=Jeanne Jakle and Hector Saldana|date=October 22, 2016|publisher=''San Antonio Express-News''|accessdate=August 3, 2017}}</ref>
