There was a radio series on long ago called “Easy Aces”. The wife, Jane, was a ditz who came up with remarks like that on a regular basis. Program was written by Goodman Ace a comedy writer for some of the best shows of the era.

I knoe it’s not Berra who was one of my favorites, but:

Ken Clay was a Yankee pitcher from Lynchburg, Virginia. Once he was asked what he thought of Bob Lemmon as a manager.

He said the first game he started for Bob Lemmon, he was getting shelled in the first inning. After a bunch of runs and no outs, Lemmon came out to the mound. Bob Lemmon said, “That’s OK son, why don’t you go get a shower and have a couple of beers.” Thurmon Munson was standing there and said, “Coach, since you’re conceeding the game, can I go have a few beers, too?”

My favorite Thurman Munson story.

Nobody ever eats there anymore. It's too crowded.

You should go to other people's funerals. Otherwise they won't come to yours.

To his wife, who asked where he wanted to be buried: Surprise me!

Now, what do you call misquoted Yogisms that fill this thread?

“Go see it and see for yourself why you shouldn’t go see it.” -— Samuel Goldwyn

(Isn’t that a sentiment expressed here often?!)

[Petronski]

“People stayed away in droves.”

[Basilides]

At a Yankees Old-Timer game, at the end, they flashed up on the scoreboard the names of all the Yankee greats who had died..

Yogi turned to Whitey Ford (as it is related by him) and said solemnly, “I hope I never see my name up there.”
