LBJ Orders Pants

- A special presentation from Put This On.
In 1964, Lyndon Johnson needed pants, so he called the Haggar clothing company and asked for some. The call was recorded (like all White House calls at the time), and has since become the stuff of legend. Johnson's anatomically specific directions to Mr. Haggar are some of the most intimate words we've ever heard from the mouth of a President.
We at Put This On took the historic original audio and gave it to animator Tawd Dorenfeld, who created this majestic fantasia of bungholiana.
Enjoy this special treat from Put This On: LBJ Orders Pants. Then share it with a friend who loves pants.

THIS MAN JUST BELCHED MID-SENTENCE
AND HE WAS GOING TO A FUNERAL AFTER THIS LMFAO
No after this.
Texas Rick
Yeah it’s funny.., it’s not a disgusting display of who he really was.. but everyone keep laughing..
@@donaldleavy4379 its not that deep bro
@@donaldleavy4379 It's 100% still funny.
Make the pockets atleast an inch longer. My money and my knife keep fallin' out
Now, another the, the crotch, down where your nuts hang.. give me an inch. These are the best I've had anywhere in the United States.
See if you can't leave me a good inch from where the zipper _BELCH_ ends, on around to ma bunghole.
I WOULD SURE BE GRATEFUL.
WHITEHOUSE.
My nuts have never felt better! Thanks, Haggar! My *burp* bunghole is feeling mighty nice as well!
Underrated comment hahaha
Hero
I’m British
Deez nutz!
Mr. President my “bunghole” is feeling comfortable as well
"Where would you like it sent please?" "White House"
It was so nonchalant and freaking funny, and the dude on the other end just says "..alright.."
What a boss
I really don't get the humor. I mean, I laughed at plenty of other parts of the phone call, but what's funny about having the pants sent to the White House?
@@tj12711 It's just such an obvious answer for the president to give, it makes the question seem redundant. Sure, there must have been other places he could have had them sent to but it still feels like "Duh".
@@nobodyspecial675 Oh I see. I assumed people were laughing at the answer, it hadn't occurred to me they found the question funny. Thanks!
"Where your nuts hang" and "they cut me this is like riding a wire fence" classic LBJ right there...
1:40
. . . back to my bunghole. 😆
White trash to the core.
That bung holes a big job😅😢😊😂
TexAs .
👍
I keep replaying this and every time I hear him burp I just lose it.
I do the same thing
a little wider in the crotch area --*burp*-- morty
I'm in between laughing and puking.
Muh nutz! Muh Bungho'! :-D Hahahahahahaha
Absolute Legend.
Imagine being on the board that declassified this
I consider them American heroes beyond any president
I sure LBJ wouldn't have minded. If they made comfortable pants he would want others to know. But it did have National Security implications in as far the Presidents balls are concerned. We were living in a dangerous world.
Or the archivist who transcribed it; how would the belch be noted?
@@orbyfanthat's a very good question
LBJ was never shy about talking about what he was packing. Ordering pants with an extra half inch for your nuts to hang is a compliment.
"And another thing, the crotch -- down where your nuts hang..." LOL This guy was a professional clothing manufacturer but I guess LBJ figured he needed to clarify exactly where the crotch was. This whole thing cracks me up, & I hope if I ever visit the LBJ library there will be a pair of these custom-designed trousers hanging in a place of honor.
They're Dockers! You can get them at any store now---Johnson basically invented them. Bigger pockets, not just for decoration but to put stuff in, more stride in the crotch (where your nuts---and bolt!---hang), and with an expandable waistline so you don't have to run to the shop when you gain an inch or two around there.
+Nick Matavka Flawed man and flawed president IMO, but he knew how to combine comfort and style.
How about the fact that he had cash "don't want my money falling out" and had a knife on him IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!!!! They're all flawed, but street fight I'd take Lyndon
I went there years ago, I don't remember if his pants were there though.
@@stoshrice4060 Read Robert Caro's biography on Johnson, sadly, you definitely don't want to have LBJ with you in a street fight. He got into several when he was a kid, and got his ass absolutely handed to him each time.
Now Abraham "Railsplitter" Lincoln is the president you'd want with you in a fight. Lincoln allegedly only lost 1 wrestling match out of the 300 he competed in during a 12 year career.
Lyndon Johnson needed extra room for Lyndon’s Johnson
yes
It was supposedly quite large. He liked to whip it out and show it to people at parties. True story.
It had a name - "Jumbo"
I never heard Lady Bird complain.
The best moment of the LBJ presidency, hands down.
This might be one of the greatest moments in American history...
Mah bunghole
I think you mean pants down
I mean that whole Civil Rights thing was pretty cool too.
@@bobfontana9101 Medicare too, and bringing millions of Americans over the poverty line, but this phone call is definitely a solid top five or top ten moment
I like that he loved these pants so much but he still has a ton of notes on how to improve them.
Tbh I think most people feel the same way about things they love.
@@brunhildevalkyrie Well i think there's different kinds of people, and the ones who want to "just enjoy things" don't appreciate/understand the people who enjoy things by picking them apart.
You can always improve... --- as much as I'm not a big LBJ fan politically, I have no problems with this exchange.
He was so unfiltered. I admired that.
He was also a blabbering idiot that made millions of lives worse but yeah i love our presidents wooo
Wooo
@@mcblahflooper94 ?
@@mcblahflooper94 made millions of lives better actually. Medicare, Medicaid, Civil Rights Act, Voting Rights Act. His legacy still endures today.
Matt C yeah ignore all his achievements because his tie color hurt your feelings. I’m sick of idiots just bending reality to make people seem worse
Little does everyone know, his initials actually stand for Ludicrously Big Johnson.
Nah, Virgo - it was little boy jitters: every time the Pentagon boys said he was being soft on communism ...
Lyndon Bull Johnson because his college mates knew he was often full of bullshit
He did actually call it "Jumbo"
@@gabrielledebourg2487 so its ludicrously big jumbo
Lyndon's Big Johnson
This is great, but imagine the other guy on the phone. While Johnson just goes on and on in extreme detail about how comfy his crotch should be, the guy’s thinking: “Is this a prank call? This can’t be for real. Oh Sweet Jesus, he’s still going...”
"Yes sir, yes sir."
Deez nutz!
He used to whip his dick out to intimidate people
"DOWN TO MA BUNGHOLE"
"Is this the president of the united states?"
"WELL WHO THE HELL ELSE WOULD IT BE? NOW ARE YOU GONNA HELP ME WITH MY NUTS HANGIN' COMFORTABLY, OR ARE YOU NOT?
That's also apparently how many of his aides felt when he conducted state business while on the toilet.
the way the guy on the phone enthusiastically goes "yes sir!" cracks me up every time
Well, ol' LBJ said he needed extra deep pockets for all his money. I guess Haggar did mighty well off LBJ's custom.
@@rdrrrHe must've been the last President to carry cash and a knife. 😅
Imagine how much self-control the man on the other end had to exercise, I wouldn't be able to breathe
Joe Haggar Jr. -- the guy on the other end of the phone -- was also a native Texan. I'm sure he'd heard it all before.
Did bunghole hit differently back then? Like was it an incredibly rare word to use at the time? Can't say I'm up to date with the prevalence of slang in the 60's.
The best parts are the knife, the nuts, the burp, the funeral, the whitehouse and the bunghole
“Where would you like them sent?”
“🇺🇸 *White House* 🇺🇸”
To golda we are same but for the dresses orders.
LBJ was such a chad he just said White House not The White House just White House
I’m your comment’s 500th like 👍 !!!
This needs to be clipped and put into a LoFi Hip-hop mix right now.
On it.

"(...) where the zipper *BELCH* ends..."
I'm pretty sure a belchend is a UK insult
1:42
Upon listening to this audio again, it’s actually quite innocent and charming. But that out-of-nowhere burp was the craziest part 😂
no really out of nowhere - you can hear him leading up to it
It is innocent and charming and wanting to wear more casual clothing “after work” treating the presidency like its a 9-5er
Disneyland should have a "Great Moments With Mr. Johnson" attraction with an animatronic LBJ and this audio.
"Daddy why is that robot waving his peepee at everyone?"
"Well son..it's a beautiful story."
Visit the LBJ museum in Austin, TX. They have all those phone calls for your entertainment...
@@fabianvera273 stop. That is the most amazing thing I've heard.
Highlights of this:
1. Use of the word "bunghole"
2. The mid sentence belch
3. Referring to where his nuts hang
@@ecardullo10 …told by a lifestyle LBJ robot sitting on a fence!
“These are the best I’ve ever had… but here’s 30 things I’d like different.”
imagine the pain that man was in before if those were his best ever im crying
Imagine how much he talked about these pants when he got them. "They don't cut me right hwhere m'nuts hang"
he had to have been fucking thrilled
Not only is LBJ saying bunghole hilarious, but it amazes me that with all that was going on during the Johnson administration, the President would be taking care of something as trivial as ordering pants? Couldn't Lady Bird or a white house aide taken care of this?
Idk if she could bring her self to say "nuts" and "bunghole"...
Roger Gordon He was an old-fashioned Southerner. His thinking is "If you want it done right, do it yourself." My mom grew up in Texas in the 1950s-60s and when she heard this, she said his language sounded very accurate (as well as his knife-carrying and his casual belch)
Roger Gordon they were probably too busy recovering from "jumbo", apparently he slept with every secretary at the white house because he wanted to outdo kennedy
Roger Gordon well, maybe somebody did order them and they ordered them wrong which is why they didn't fit right. So, he figured he better do it himself so he wouldn't be uncomfortable next time around
They couldn't be trusted with such a sensitive operation.
Sometimes, when you are feeling sad about your life, just remember that anything is possible. This guy was President. Whatever it is, you can do it.
One of the sharpest politicians to ever put on a pair of pants.
He was also a very good and effective president.
You say it like he was dumb XD, but no one greased the gears of the Senate like Lyndon.
LBJ: Lyndon Beavis Johnson
5 years and not one like? My God this was great. Thank you for the laugh!
😂
When he belches I imagine Hagar pulling the phone away and looking at the receiver in surprise.
The animation on the burp is just perfection
The fact that he did this before going to a fucking funeral takes the wind out of me 💀💀
This is real and its not the dumbest thing a US President has had been recorded saying on a call
John F. Kennedy was actually recorded on the phone talking about furniture costs IIRC, he cursed when he heard the amount and feared it would cause a massive scandal with the public if the press found out.
...Or live television for that matter.
I've been reading Ron Chernow's bio on George Washington. Washington was also very particular when ordering his clothes from a tailor in London. Must be a Presidential thing. Although, I don't think he ever mentioned his "balls" or his "bunghole".
But we all know damn well Ben Franklin did. Ben Franklin probably drew his tailor diagrams.
@@hoilst Ben Franklin was never POTUS.
@@lambdaman3228 He was never president but he should've been. He would've been interesting
@@wesleycorder4594 We're discussing how different US presidents might have ordered their clothes tailored. Ben Franklin was never a US president. Therefore discussing him is off topic here. If you want to discuss how inventors order clothing, or how non presidents order their clothing, I suggest you create a new comment on this video instead of replying to this one.
George called them his Apple bag and referred to his bunghole as his “trap door”.
He talked of both so often it was incredible.
Did I really just hear a president use "bunghole" ? PPSHHHAHaha ha ha hh* h*
I just heard him say 'nuts' !!! this is crazy
i HAVE always heard that he was crude, rude, and socially un-acceptable at most dinner parties!
You know Clinton and W did at some point. They just haven’t declassified the tapes.
Hell, I can see those two smoking a j and laughing their asses off at Beavis & Butthead.
ITS LIKE RIDING A WIRE FENCE
They need to put mannequins of LBJ wearing those pants in museums and have this audio playing.
I actually first heard a part of this clip on a Wisconsin morning radio show in 1998. Freaking excellent.
LBJ was carrying a knife with him? I hope it was a classic greaser switchblade lol.
XD
I'm actually just as suprised he carried money with him
Joe Dick no credit cards back then!
DonPeyote Well yeah, but he was President of the United States, I don't think he was running down to the drugstore for smokes or anything.
Joe Dick well, he was a real boyscout seems to be - ready for anything, had a knife with him in case he needs it, had some change in case he needs to make a paid phone call, he wanted to be prepared for anything. Maybe he was afraid he could be kidnapped, so he wanted to have a blade to cut the ropes and some change for payphone on him at any time, idunno lol.
LBJ is Rick Sanchez confirmed.
Lol this is so bizarre hes calling one of the owners of a major company like hes the local corner store tailor "joe is your dad the one that makes clothes?" And giving him the measurements like hes the assistant or something 😂
It was a way different and more personal time, people just were expected to casually know a lot of the things we mentally offload now
I feel so strangely proud that I was born on this guy's birthday.
0:36 - it is interesting as hell hearing a sitting US President talk about common things like unwinding after coming home from work at the end of the day. One of those “putting their pants on one leg at a time” thing (no pun intended).
What LBJ needed in the crotch of his pants was a gusset. This is a small piece of cloth that gives a bit more room. I've always wondered why they aren't used more often in pants because they do make for a more comfortable fit.
That is exactly correct. It gives more room and prevents the 'rise' of the pant from looking too long. A Gusset falls in the category of craftsmanship. So, it's a lost art. We don't make anything here in the USA anymore.
That build up to the presidential burp. Just legendary
Though he was one of the most depressed presidents I knew and watched, it was still hilarious when he belched and keeps saying bunghole lmao
Amazing johnson didn't sound polite, he burped on the line without saying excuse me.
Texas...
LBJ had horrible manners, a lot of people commented on it.
That's not impolite, wrr
he was drunk lol
Shit yeah he was drunk! Everyone was drunk back then. If you didn't come home 3 sheets to the wind and slap your old lady around for burning supper you just weren't American!
goddammit vinny
Lyndon "Bunghole" Johnson
I'd imagine the president of the US could afford to ask a company to send a tailor right to the White House instead of phoning in an order. Still, the idea is hilarious, and Johnson certainly didn't disappoint either.
The president actually pays for their clothing, as well as food, toilet paper, gifts to foreign leaders, vacations, haircuts, and private party staff.
I shall not seek and I will not accept any other pants
The B in LBJ stands for "Balls, Big Bulbous Balls too close to his Bunghole"
Jumbo sort of makes a guest appearance.
LBJ is a personal hero for how much legislation he was able to pass.
Imagine that happening today.
LBJ was an actual racist though.
he contently knew what he wanted
I wanted to be shocked when I first heard this but I’ve answered a lot of calls from old people.
"wire fence", lol.
Funny thing is that my Grandma steam presses those pants and suits. she worked in Haggar Most of the 60s and 70s
That was some seriously funny shit!!! Nearly laughed my soft green britches off. All these years all I can think is "Poor Lady Bird." Surely she must've have busted a rib or two, right?
@rl943 😐
@@villll This is a nice video of LBJ and Lady Bird and cute Hereford cattle ua-cam.com/video/m9PET5sQjwA/v-deo.html From LBJ library
He is THE GREAT BUNGHOLIO!!
I love how all the inappropriate language in this call was totally avoidable.
"A bit more space in the crotch area" would have been completely clear.
LBJ never missed an opportunity to elude to the size of what he was packing.
His accent just makes it that much better
muh money and muh knife and everythan jus fall out
Vinny Sent Me Here...
Which stream (2 years later)
MGS 3 for me.
I literally lost it when he burped 😂
Ordering pants like a BOSS
Not only did LBJ cost more lives than anyone in American history, but he also cared for his pant fitment.
Chester A. Arthur punching air rn
the burp, this must have been the subconscious inspiration for Uncle Rick
1:42 Best moment overall
You know, there is a book by a Secret Service man who covered "old bullnuts," as LBJ was called, because he was PARTICULARLY "WELL ENDOWED" IN THE TESTICLES--PLUS, he LIKED getting NUDE in FRONT of his wife and kids (?!!) on Air Force One whenever he got aboard, and was known to simply take a leak off the upstairs balcony of his Whitehouse living quarters and onto the Whitehouse Lawn.
On the OTHER hand, he FOUNDED National Public Radio, and CHAMPIONED de-segregation of Blacks JUST before Watts
those are the same hand, don't let anyone tell you otherwise
love him...so colorful!!
I would have for sure thought this was a crank call if I was the guy on the other end
LEGEND
An incredible moment in history
This man also waged war in Vietnam, what a wild thought. Love this call
this is so great! it cheers me up every time! :D
I would like to have heard old Mayer Daley and Johnson in a room together.
But he's got the biggest Balls of them all!!
That belch going right onto the bungwhole is like a two hit punch combo or retoric
Needed that extra room for Jumbo
LBJ a true politician, and I want a President that carries cash and a knife, that's my kind of guy
Not to mention change. I don't think of presidents with change falling out of their pockets.
I want a president that leaves plenty of room around his bunghole
Change and a knife
On June 30, 1967, LBJ amended Selective Service regulations and drafted many of us out of law school or grad school. He had no plan to win, so people like my pal Bill died in Vietnam in 1968. When the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated, LBJ's wife did not show up nor did anybody from the Nixon presidency.
My favorite bit about this is that some random citizen was like "I'm gonna send POTUS some pants."
Does that sort of thing still happen?
You know what's even better - that POTUS actually wore these pants and sent him feedback lol
Well, it was Haggar that sent him those pants. It was a pretty well-established company in Dallas by the time LBJ took office.
@@threestrikesmarxman9095 Yep. This wasn't a random clothing store he called, this was a top tier outlet that LBJ did business with before.
This is the funniest thing even legend
I think the animation - while good - may need a few extra sketches at the part where he needs extra material down thar whar yore nuts hang !
Great ad for Hagger even if they had to make 6 pairs of long stride pants for free . . . After this they could hang out a board sign saying "Infitters to the President" !
I'm sure Johnson would've throughly enjoyed Beavis and Butthead.
I am shaking with laughter !
as a matter of fact LBJ stands for: Lyndon Big. Johnson
The fact that the LBJ library has this whole conversation on a phone bank
Sounds like my grandfather, has to repeat himself every other sentence...
he was cooking here
Lyndon is pleased.
He needed some extra breathing room for ol' "Jumbo"
"...riding a wire fence."
Ouch
Can we have him back, please!
losing my mind at varying 10-15 pounds a month
He used to hold meetings while he was on the crapper.
Awesome! Happy presidents' day ya'll!
Why does this remind me of Rick Sanchez? He even burps 😂
Drunk ordering pants. Today he’d be drunk on Amazon
They should have Beavis and Butthead listen to this. "Huh, huh, he said "bunghole."
Maybe the realest conversation of politician ever had
Cracks you Yankees up, but just typical southern charm to we Southerners. Sounds like my Uncle Norman, except he was very much more profane. Heck, LBJ didn't even break wind.
0:29 _Now I need about six pairs for summer wear_
Bars
I've heard "as i'm aware" funnily enough
Like riding a wire fence lol
