Quotable: Soupy Sales


1. I took my wife to a baseball game - I kissed her on the strikes and she kissed me on the balls.

2. What starts with "F" and ends with "UCK"? A fire truck!

3. Be an optimist - at least until they start moving animals in pairs to Cape Canaveral.

4. I climbed a tree and kissed my girl between the limbs.

5. Be true to your teeth and they won't be false to you.

6. My wife is a great cook - she makes great pies. I eat her cherry and she eats my banana.

7. If I see 'F' you see 'K'.

  1. You know I really don't remember Mr. Soup very well.

    But I read of his death on FOX news, so I wasn't sure if it was a REAL news story, cuz you know... FOX news is not a real news station.

    Ha!

    Those are great quotes! I keep on forgetting to write... I love the Halloweenie stuff you got goin' on in here! Fun, spooky fun!

  2. I read somewhere that many of these lines are urban legend that were mistakenly attributed to him on his kid's show. Nevertheless, I well remember watching Soupy and yukking it up. Did you know his kids played with David Bowie in Tin Men?

  3. I never did get the urge to watch anything that he was a part of. Not sure why. The guy just never yanked my chain. I guess Cool Whip sales will fall now.

  4. @ dufus - I read that too, but they were too funny to pass up. Remember "Do the Mouse"? Reminds me of your post at downbeat dufus, "Do the Freddie".

    @ Don - I did watch, Frank Sinatra was just one of the many stars that appeared for Soupy's infamous pie-in-the-face gag.

  6. I used to love Soupy Sales but, to be honest, until I saw that he just died, I was absolutely convinced that he had died a number of years ago. Is that a sign of me getting old?

  7. I used to get a kick out of his stuff. My dad would just roll at his jokes. Like Joel I kind of thought he was dead already and no, that isn't a sign of you getting old because I'm not old! Another good one is gone.

  8. @ Joel - Yes!


    @ Buggys - My dad would too! I was just too young to get it. But I loved the pies in the face.

  9. Like Buggys' dad, mine would be laughing til he cried. I liked watching the show in the 70's, but I loved more seeing my dad in stitches like that. His laugh is contagious. RIP Soupy.

  15. I remember Soupy more as a panelist on something. The Gong Show maybe? I forget.
