THROWBACK THURSDAY: Grape Nuts with Euell Gibbons

[@124marsh]

Pine Cones are edible, LOL

[@icut1]

Never ate a pine tree but I once used a twig form one for a roach clip.

[@IMChrisThom]

I pray this was a joke and they realize this was dubbed & not the original audio

[@johnshannon]

They seemed to think it was original...sort of offensive to know it is not accurate.

[@davidvalensi8616]

That's not even his voice, completely dubbed.

[@bruceandkim2305]

Nope. Those dummies thought that was the actual commercial.

[@boblazar119]

Do you ever eat a doorknob? many parts are edible

[@danielcarlson800]

LOL!!!!!!🤣

[@philg4116]

Euell was a pseudonym. His actual name was Yule, and he yuled people when the top of his head took the shape of a gnarled goat horn that he would plunge into their brains.

[@dianepeters7485]

The bits about eating from his shoe and goose poop were added later. They were not a part of the commercial. Not particularly funny.

[@Fool3SufferingFools]

A much better sendup of Euell Gibbons was done by Skip Hinnant on The Electric Company back in the Seventies.

I’d like to see it do you have a link?

Yule had lightweight metallic arm bones, like titanium, so he could swing them fast and crack your skull in multiple places in a matter of seconds.
