“Don is one of the best!”
Saw Rickles in Vegas in the late 90’s. Still doing the old jokes he did when Martin and Sinatra were alive. He mentioned how he missed them.
Anyway, one of his first jokes...
He’s talking,
colored guy walks on the stage(wearing a white vest like a porter)...
Rickles says “What? is there something wrong with the luggage?”
Brilliant comedian..
I got here in 1983.
Many, many times do I wish I would have got here in 1963, too see the spectacle of talent on display....just wow.
Too bad I was born in '56, lol.
I met Red Fox at Sam's Town, playing Keno. Met him in line to bet / collect, he came over to sit by me....I hit it big, $1,100 on a 5/6, played the birthdays of my family....
He gave me so much sh!t, "Honkie wins - he's buying, unless he is a cheap b!tch!" - then he looked at me and said, "you ain't no cheap b!tch are ya?"
Priceless........
There is no other place like Las Vegas.
Many years ago, I saw a Don Rickles routine. He said he’d visited Japan, and that the Japanese were so polite. Everywhere he went, the people bowed and said to him, “Ah-so, Ah-so!”
