Hoolihan & Big Chuck - "Ben Crazy" + "Gross Encounters of a Certain Ethnic Kind"

Taped in 1978 or so, here are two skits from the Hoolihan & Big Chuck Show from WJKW-TV8, Cleveland...a Ben Crazy skit, plus one of their "Gross Encounters of a Certain Ethnic Kind" skits, an obvious take-off of "Close Encounters."

I can only hope that somehow it gets back to those responsible for these skits how much enjoyment I get watching them now as I did back then.

I'd like to think this might be the way contacting aliens happens. Any friendly aliens who want to have a good time will stop by Cleveland, hey, it's got both Polka Varieties *and* the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame!

"A certain Ethnic" is the world's first politically correct term.
