Anyone remember when Mrs. Arnold Palmer successfully sued Johnny Carson for a joke he made that involved Arnold’s privates??

Oh, yes I do, though I didn’t actually see the episode.

It did not involve private body parts- it involved golf BALLS— interpreted as being euphemism for testicles. The remark from Carson was about betting that stiffens his putter. A JOKE iow. which was not appreciated, and won court awards for the commentary. Stupid comment, not particularly funny except to an after hours late night drunk as hell bunch of goobers.
Like the bunch of goobers on this thread- juveniles.

“I bet that made his putter stand up!” was the line, IIRC.

A classic from Johnny for sure.
