(16,386 posts)1. My sister and I saw this when we were probably about 5 and 8 years-old.
It cracked us up so much, we would often act it out together just for the laughs. Hadn't thought about it in years. Thanks for posting.

My mother used to quote that a lot. I knew it was Abbott and Costello, but not the setting.
Thank you!
