2. If you throw in Zeppo, then pound for pound it's the Stooges.

21. Zeppo is criminally under-appreciated
Brilliant straight-man.

5. No contest.
Have we got a college? Have we got a football team?....Well we can't afford both. Tomorrow we start tearing down the college.

7. Harumph, after the shoddy way they treated Zeppo, I'll make him an honorary Howard Brother
and vote for the Stooges. Imagine the nerve of them--punishing the poor lad for being so handsome, then punting him from the team.

8. In a "ha-ha" funny way, it's The Marx Brothers...
...but the Marx Brothers didn't perform one of the Three Stooges' funniest bits:

Larry: I'm going fishing.
Moe: You got worms?
Larry: Yeah, but I'm goin' anyway.


:rofl:
