@LMW1159 They had to turn his head all the way around because for some reason they never made a Bert with eyelids for this sketch, and the only way they could show he was asleep was to turn his head all the way the other way so his eyes wouldn't show. Considering the fact these are hand puppets OH NO! I SAID THE "P" WORD! :) the performer could only turn his wrist so far 1 way and then had to turn it back the other way to make him look at Ernie.

The best part of this was when Ernie grabbed Bert's arm while he was sleeping and started waving it around. Yes, it indeed was flappy and soggy-like! LOL
One of my favorite E/B segments from when I was a kid, although I thought Ernie was wearing the darker sweatshirt when I first saw this.
I am using this video as an "explanation" for the Facebook "Poke" feature...hehehe..."feature"...jeeze...hehehehe... :P

That's kind of weird that Bert needs to put on his pajamas to take a nap with. IT's weird that both Bert and Ernie put on pajamas just to take a nap!

Apparently when Bert is asleep, his elbow ceases to exist.
