Suppertime! Come n git it!

Friends....

I got it. I got Saturdays winner, but first im telling you a story..When I was about 9 years old I started selling peanuts at Arlington Park race track. I had a little stand out front of the grandstand entrance and I'd make about $80 a day and at the end of the day i'd have to give half of that to the track.. One day I started yelling stupid stuff like "SUPPERTIIME!" and "COME AND GET IT" and "SOO-EE" and whatever I thought of that day..People would laugh and look and once they looked, they bought and I quadrupled my sales. They stuck me in front of the Clubhouse and suddenly I AM taking home 150 to $250 a day- This is 1971 now..All the big stars came in the Clubhouse and I saw em all, and they always stopped to talk, sometimes for more than just a few minutes, and many times they gave me a tip on the way out..Jack Klugman gave me a $100 bill onetime..I remember Get Smart (Don Adams) comes up for peanuts one time so and I say "Mr Smart, are you really the voice of Tennessee Tuxedo?" and he says, and I quote "Chumley! get me out of here!"-my friends would hang around the stand and we all cracked up at that..Barbera Eden (I dream of jeanie) used to visit with me a lot too cause she was from around there..Years later my friend married her much younger sister, but thats another story- I did that for about 3 years, and I thought I was set for life then a Jewish guy bought the consessions and I was out..

Anyway, It's supper time, come and get it

cool story--especiallly about Jack Klugman, but what does the guy buying the concessions being Jewish have to do with anything if you don't mind me asking ?

Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

and yet, he simultaneously praises Jack Klugman, a Jew, for his big $100 tip.

Plus, I'm not so sure that the guy who bought the concessions was the "shady greedy businessman" in the story.
