Norm getting the world to say one of his best punchlines: "I didn't even know he was sick!"
As soon as I heard that's what came to mind. Terrible tragedy, the worst ever in the month of September.
@@adrianfytr35 😂😂
EVERYONE has been cracking jokes about Norm being dead using his own lines and that makes me very, very, very happy.
@@BomChickyBowWow You sound like a guy who would also like Hitler's beautiful eyes.
@@BomChickyBowWow I heard a rumor he was actually murdered and this is a cover up..
The main suspect?
You guessed it...
Frank Stallone.
Does OJ have a alibi during the time of Norms death?
WHO'S STONEWALLING THIS INVESTIGATION!?
He'd love that jab
Did Bill Cosby call his Dad to offer condolences?
Paging Kato Kaelin
Where was Albert Fish, the Werewolf of Wysteria?
"Ah yes, Greg Giraldo. He has the grace of a swan, the wisdom of an owl and the eye of an eagle. Ladies and gentlemen... this man is for the birDs."

Lmao, at a roast.
@@vinyllpreviews9462 Roast of Bob Saget
"He got caught counting cards!"
Lovitz just delivered a perfect Norm punchline! The story going one way and then WHAM! Oh yeah, and there was this!!
🤣🤣🤣
That was a very norm esquw delivery. Loved it.
simply awesome
@@LeeGHThomas lovitzed it*
…I’ll see myself out.
This should make UA-cam's trending rn. Norm was a freaking LEGEND. *Nobody* had more commitment and more fearlessness than Norm MacDonald. He is the patron Saint of patronizers. He is the titan of trollery. Above all, he was a kind soul and an absolutely larger-than-life comedian, and he will be sorely missed.
Yeah but that Hitler though...
...........or so the Germans would have us believe
Your eulogy is a bit better than Fred Stollers, '' Crazy sad day.''
Nobody has been more respected by their peers.
Every week is a rabbit hole of Norm content for me, so sad 😞 He's a legend. Truly a comedian's comedian
Classic long drawn out story to get to the punchline.
Lovitz just payed tribute to him there. Absolutely perfect story to zing in the little punchline.
“He was banned for card counting”.
Earlier he let us know he was an intelligent mathematician (foreshadow).
Beautiful tribute.
Exactly. Lovitz totally doing a Norm. Perfect.
Norm's story about playing tennis with Lovitz, is classic.
Just "tinking it" over the net!
Jon lovitz is definitely not a peruvian 60
@@garydodson6737 you’ve never seen anything like it!
@John Nichols Only the millionth hack to repeat this Norm joke in comments. How original of you.
@@Uuu44 And Lovitz lumbers over...
I love that comedians know how truly brilliant his roast of Bob Saget was.
except jim norton
Norm and Andy Kaufman's acts were masterclasses in trolling audiences!
Only difference is Norm was funny.
I don't think his humour has a lot in common with Kaufman's. And he probably didn't think so himself
"Ya know the more I learn about this Hitler fella, the less I care for him." -Norm.
"This Hitler guy is a jerk", lol. RIP Norm
Norm made a lot of other comics laugh. He was the comedians comic. Now that they explain his humor to me, I appreciate him.
I think the fact that Norm purposely bombed the Saget roast with clean, corny jokes demonstrates just how fearless he was.
We will miss Norm tremendously. My prayers and sympathies go to his family and friends. RIP
The comment about "going down a UA-cam wormhole" watching all the Norm Macdonald stuff is so true. I watched anything with Norm in it whenever I saw it, and I even purposely sought out his SNL stuff, for years. But I have seen SO MUCH Norm in the last couple of days it's ridiculous. Norm was the best. He will be sorely missed.
A nice Norm moment in sport happened in the last NBA playoffs when the play-by-play guy mentioned that Nuggets guard, Jamal Murray, is from Kitchener, and then the color guy instinctively added "Kitchener Leslie", a re-occurring character from Norm's stories. So now Jamal Murray will always be associated with Norm. Stay healthy, Jamal : ).
Where’s that? Sounds hilarious
Wow would love to hear that. The announcer must have been a big fan to rattle that off
@@willissudweeks1050 I do remember it happening, but I suppose it may not have been the color guy. And looking back at the roster, I'm thinking it had to have been Jason Benetti, who is a huge Norm fan, and it looks like the only NBA playoff game he called was the first game of the Trailbllazers Nuggets series. And quips like that may have led to his dismissal 😂
Kitchener Leslie' girlfriend is one of my favourite jokes. I'm so gonna miss norm
@@equaliser9043 Mine to, I think it was one he totally made up because no old timey joke would be like that at all haha
"Bob has a face like a flower, yeah a CAULI-FLOWER!"
Yeah this Eisner fella fucked up Norm's cauliflower joke. Thanks for telling it the way Norm did.
Just watch the Espys opening monologue that Norm Hosted. Norm was a legend.
LEGEND
legends never die
That was him at his best, I've said for a long time the Charles Woodson heisman joke is the best joke ever.
“Unless you murder your ex wife and a waiter.”
“I’m pretty sure, I’m not a doctor, but I’m pretty sure if you die, the cancer dies at the same time. that’s not a loss. That’s a draw.”
-Norm MacDonald
He probably had cancer when he wrote that joke :(
Also his dad dying of a heart attack and being in a better place bit :)
Those are the first 2 bits I thought of when I heard he died.
Actually cancer increases in the body right after a patient dies. That usually occurs for up to 2 days.
@@drexlspivey3047 Then what?
@@drexlspivey3047 Oh, so youre THAT guy. Who fact checks a joke?! Sets ups and punchlines rarely are true and they dont have to be to be funny.
@@drexlspivey3047 Yeah then it dies in the end, so shut up.
Norm was savage and so damn talented...my favorite comedian. RIP Norm.
The sad but yet great thing about when comedians die, especially someone like Norm MacDonald, is we really get to appreciate and (re)experience just how funny they were and how important it is to laugh at life. RIP Norm
I am sure that will be a lot of consolation for him at the new place.
I agree. Just think of how great it would be if a comedian died every single day.
This is the guy who accused Norm of 'tinking' it over the net.
Norm in a leather jacket
So many good Norm stories, loved this one
Rich laughing so hard at the last bit (Norm counting cards) makes me happy. RIP Norm
Such a great Norm MacDonald story
Jon mentions Norm’s son and I look up to see a small person between Norm and Jon. Must be his son.. looked closer and it’s Gilbert Gotfreid.
“GOO GOO GA GAA”
Lmao
Hahahaaaa
Bwahahahaha
Chip off the old chunk of coal
I got to see Norm and Jon perform in Palm Springs and it is hands down one of my fondest memories.
RIP Norm, you will be sorely missed
"Well he was gambling and got caught counting cards."
LMAO
Jon Lovitz, Ladies and Gentlemen! Let's give him a big hand! That was great. As great as the story was, and we were all laughing just thinking about Norm in that situation, then the "football player turned murderer*" reference, and ends with a bang! That's that timing they always refer to when discussing the most important element of comedy. You've still got it, Jon!
Jon Lovitz is great, loved his stand up and voices and pretty much all he has done!
"The critic" was hilarious.
@@deridivisstar884 still holds up and holds a special place in my heart. taught me a lot about comedic timing.
I laughed so hard I almost wet myself at, “and he got caught counting cards”.
There are some deaths that just hurt. This one really really hurts
Can you imagine all the great comics at the funeral. Like Stan Laurel’s funeral
Now that's going back a few years (1965).
Norms jokes about lovitz are so funny. He was such a good comedian. God, was supposed to seem him in a couple months. Sad I'll never be able to.
It’s weird seeing his picture put up like an obituary now because it feels like it’s the start of a sketch that Norm is making
His humor was based around exposing, and challenging peoples hypocrisy. That is what a great comic does.
I’ve been watching norm videos religiously for the last few years.. it’s so sad to think he’s only appreciated now that he’s gone, he deserved the world
Norm loved John Lovitz stand up. "Eh he was a good guy"
Lovitz did that whole setup and punchline as a tribute to Norm I do believe.
Absolutely. He did it Norm style as a dear tribute.
Soon as he said for counting cards. I smiled. Good job Lovitz.
You can tell he’s still choked up about Norm 😢
Norm was a fearless tennis player , he would move close to the net and keep tinking it over
You've never seen anything like it!
norma tennis story about John was one of the funniest bits I’ve ever heard
That ending was brilliant
We love you Norm!!! Hopefully you can see how much from wherever you are. You were a beautiful person.
Thank you Norm for everything.💖 Missing you right now. 😥
Happy i was one of the people who appreciated him in life with the clips the way so many are now in death. Never more than a week without norm
I loved Norm Macdonald, especially with the SNL Jeopardy sketches. I am so broken hearted, R.I.P. Norm, there will never be another like you.
Norm is the David Bowie of comedy. He went out doing his art.
Bob Saget new! Only person so far I think he told? I was listening to one of his last things he ever did and it was a phone call with Bob and at the end of the phone call Bob said….” Don’t give up” and Norm was quick to say “yeah yeah yeah OK bye”
He just didn’t wanna bother anybody but it wouldn’t have been a bother to anyone to spend more time with him! :(
Just imagining Lovitz playing tennis with Norm is hilarious. Norm with a leather jacket, leaving the court after he scored a point to brag to his assistant, all by just tinking it over the net!
Really love Rich Eisen for the Norm respect the last couple days
Norm was banned in Biloxi. Another reason to love the man, rip.
Exactly.
I always like Norm,.....I like him even more now.
I've been watching many of the comedians that knew Norm .And they have all said we didn't even know he was sick.. That's just so sad. But I guess that's the way Norm wanted it. I've thought to myself for years that Norm MacDonald looks very ill. I mean he has looked gray as death for awhile, and I've thought long ago it must be cancer. I still haven't heard what kind of cancer he had. But I'm guessing like colon cancer. Or stomach cancer. He was a smoker but for some reason I didn't think lung cancer. I guess we will find out pretty soon. Love you Norm. You have been one of the very best.
Brilliantly played Mr. Lovitz, that was classic!!!
The world is so much less funny now. Norm was one of a kind.
Here drink some of this purple water, it will make you feel better.
I would argue he inspired so many his impact made the world much more funny.
@@ole_limberlegs that's a great way to look at it. Thank you
@@chrisratcliff7466 no problem my friend... he was a true legend
I thought he was gonna complain about how Norm just keeps tinking it over the net.
I miss Norm so much already :(
I always understood Norm's humor and I will always love him
The end was the best part. ..and he was caught ing counting cards. I teared up with laughter upon hearing that. Fucking Norm:)
Love how John has to clarify his own successes
I was at a mostly sold out show of his at the House of Blues in Las Vegas. He did the same thing intentionally bombing with corny old jokes. The whole place was mostly empty by the end of the 90 minute set.
I'd love to see that.
Him being a math genius is new information but at the same time not surprising
You have to be damned good with numbers to count cards in a casino.
He skipped two grades and graduated high school at 16 and got a math degree at 18. He was always the smartest guy in the room, pretending to be a simpleton.
Big fan of Russian literature as well.
Big fan of Russian literature as well.
Guy absolutely butchered the cauliflower joke lol
Seriously, how can you laugh at it when you tell it like that? Makes no sense..
I think Norm was a true scholar or sage of comedy. He understood it in an incredible way and played with the rules in very odd yet wonderful ways.
Norm getting caught counting cards is the most Norm that Norm could be. Best joke ever.
I heard the same interview but I recall Jon Lovitz saying "Gobble, gobble, gobble."
Norm was 1 of 1. Comedy takes balls, takes huge balls to pull off the things Norm did.
He was a ONE OF A KIND!
yep, the o.j. joke was pure norm. some dark humor, he could land some heavy ones, people seeing the humor but looking around to see who was laughing.
All time legend. Rest in peace 🙏🕊
Norm blew out Jon Lovits in tennis with full blown cancer. The legend is going to continue to grow.
Jon Lovitz is a master thespian.
He was filthy and he got caught counting cards.
Great Norm story!
Priceless
John didn’t even know he was sick!
I've tried counting cards, it's not nearly as easy as the movies make it look. RIP Norm
I had an app, shows you two cards and you swipe, 2 new cards, you try to count as fast as you can, then push a button and tell you the count. I was getting pretty good.
Sit down at the casino, people talking, the first second you break concentration it's over. Also, I had huge 18 count so I make big bet, I get dealt 15 and dealer gets 21 lol
Most of us crave the human connection of understanding. Norm was a private, authentic person who transcended that need. His politics were definitely not mine, but I respect his individualism, which was catastrophic for his career. His (male) peers loved him. He was rich in friends.
I'm remembering the Seinfeld episode where Jon Lovitz played a character that did the opposite of Norm Macdonald - everybody thought he had cancer, but he didn't, but didn't say anything, and kept enjoying the extra attention.
Oh that’s RIGHT! Thanks for reminding us that neat juxtaposition of the two
@@BaedekerBat And fortunately, it's unlikely Lovitz will be attacked by a crazed fan screaming, "You hypocrite!"
He just TINKS IT over the net! I've never seen anything like it!
Now Jon, I understand you're growing older.
“You wouldn’t believe it, he just ‘tinks’ it over the net! I’ve never seen anything like it!”
He just tinks it across the net you’ve never seen anything like it
Norm was great, that Heisman trophy joke, along with those PC ESPN types all turning white as a ghost must have been classic Norm.
Wow Rich totally messed up the cauliflower joke
that's awesome that Norm got caught counting cards, Didn't know that about him.
I've been in a lot of those type of casino events for high tier players. Gambled for a living most of my life. Wish I was I was there to watch Norm stick it to those snobs. I watched those sore losers insult a few performers, just out of anger from losing. I unleashed my anger at casino management and gaming Commissions when gamblers were taking advantage of. Much more appropriate. Although i did injure my hand a few times. That steel slot machine was unforgiving.
Norm said he doesn’t go to comedy clubs where Lovitz is performing lol
Norm was hilarious. People used to say I sounded like him when I laughed. Rest in peace, kid.
I see Norm I like and subscribe. :( so fkn sad...
Lovitz is a legend.
When you know what Norm is doing you're thinking outside the box looking in and laughing the whole time
Brilliant ending
Norm was so close to Bob and diidn't want to say anything bad about his friend.
Funny stuff! I dealt blackjack for years. Card counters make it too easy to spot them. They bet small for 9 bets in a row, then suddenly bet big. Busted! That gets their attention right away. You do that a few times and win each time you bet big and you are lucky if they don't take you to security and beat the hell out of you. They don't like counters! And the thing is, counting doesn't give you the edge at all. It just lowers the house's edge. If you use the force instead of counting, you will win and not be caught. And as stupid as that sounds, it works. You just have to know how to get the feel of how the deck is working. I have hit a 14 when the dealer showed a 6. But I knew the dealer's down card was a 4 or 5, so I had to hit. And that was the force, not counting. And I ended up getting a 6, the dealer had the 5 under there for 11, and he ended up busting. Had I not taken the card, he would have won with my 6. Instead, he got a 2 then a 10. Busted. The table won. That was not counting, but being aware of the flow of the deck, tipping the dealer, and chatting with the dealer. If the dealer likes you, they won't go after you. They won't ever cheat. But they will shuffle up and change the flow of the deck if they want to or are told to.
beautiful!
Norm's greatest and most courageous moment was at the '98 ESPYs when he Told Charles Woods they couldn't the Heisman away from him unless he killed his wife & a waiter...Spellbindingly FUNNY and Blew away so much pretentiousness!
Woodson not Woods
@@lacyrider72 Yes, of course!
The key here is, keep your private life private. There's no point of telling others about anything (other than your close family) about your life.
"The jokes weren't funny. And that was the joke"
Norm was playing 3-dimensional comedy with the Saget roast.
Love Norm. That’s why I’m here. Always very much enjoyed Lovitz & Eisen, but despite the spelling & most renditions of Neil Simon’s “Biloxi Blues”; it is not pronounced “Biloxi”, but “Biluxi”. It doesn’t make sense (I know), but the mispronunciation drives a Mississippian nuts
Casinos don't ban you for counting cards, unless you're good at it. Casinos won't tolerate consistent winners.
