This guy, claiming to be a distant relative of Bud, says (on TV) in the original "draft" of "Who's on First" the catcher was "god" but Universal wouldn't let them use it. I hate when people are, for whatever their reason, putting false info out there, like Bud filling in for Lou's indisposed straight man, bla bla, bla. Look at this nonsense: http://www.clipsyndicate.com/video/playlist/16478/1532710?cpt=8&title=google_local_broadcast&wpid=8790

Dear Monkey Suprime, You're Right..This guy is not a phoney..at least in regards to his being a true relative of Bud's.However? No one knows the true origins of Who's On First..there have been many claims as to how the routine came about and the info has not always been accurate. My Apologies to you and to the users of this site..for my remarks about this guy not being a true relative of Bud's. Kevin S.Butler The Reporter.

Dear Monkey Suprime, In regards to persons saying nasty,mean spirited things about the boyss.I'm not talking about this guy..who claims to be a relative of Bud Abbott's? I'm referring to that damn Bob Thomas/Eddie Sherman book and the NBC TV movie.Which is mean spirited and nasty and untrue. Kevin S.Butler The Reporter.

> Worse than false info.. is stories ..... that are really nasty,mean spirited to the point of being vulgar.

How ironic.

why the venom toward this man? I watched the story and dont see where he said anything bad about Bud or Lou. Are you taking offense to him saying they wanted the catchers name to be "god" ?

Dear MWeber, I agree with you..I'm getting sick of all of this arrogant blabbing by people.Who claim that they knew the boys and they give false info about them.But? Worse than false info..is stories about Bud and Lou that are really nasty,mean spirited to the point of being vulgar. Hopefully..people will stop listening to the phonies..with their B-! stories about A&C and we can appreciate the true histories of their work and their work too. Kevin S.Butler The Reporter.

What nonsense. If the guy is actually a relative he should be satisfied with that and not try to pass off ridiculous bilge as legitimate trivia. *Pinnngg!*
