[TheBigWI93]

@ChobinoftheFunk ...then who's playing second???

Ahh! its killing me!

[ChobinoftheFunk]

@TheBigWI93 No, no, no! Who's playing first. What's on second.

[hungryjokester]

I believe the right fielder's name is nobody!

[theoneandonly935]

No One plays right field

[ProdigiousHdawg]

LOVE these guys! When I was in first grade, I went through a huge Abbott and Costello phase, and would come to school dressed in a suit and bowler hat every day just like Lou wore...I just about drove my best friend crazy! :D

[freind4eva1234]

Always makes me laugh!

[WolfGirl4489]

xDD My Algebra teacher showed me this!! Mr.Coleman if you see this this is Taylor!!!! xDDDDD

[BakkiBoo]

CLASSIC!



[Gman46ful]

[MooMeansMoo]

My dad emailed this to me... Why? I dunno. But I enjoyed watching it -3-

[supernaturalsamandea]

This play that Abbott & Costello done was simply a CLASSIC. I Love this play.

[17Haru17]

toopoogang, no, just no.

[drivinsouth651]

brilliant!

[Kovu427]

Personally, I think disliking Abbot & Costello should be a federal offense...these guys are SO...GOD-DAMN...FUNNY!

[toopoogang]

THEY UNSELFISHLY SOLD MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN WAR BONDS GOT NOTHING FOR IT. THIS COUNTRY OWES THEM SO MUCH.... THEY SHOULD OF GOT AN EXEMPTION FROM PAYING ANY TAXES FOR LIFE!!!

[jordanthewizard]

Classic

[goldiggerize]

[dvine9]

Absolutley plays right field!

[kelseylee311]

I just did this sketch in my drama class. I knew this before today but when I realized what it was... I was sooo happy! :)

[Robpattzlover109]

He totally got it for a second there...4:25

[Railer61]

..i don't know THIRDBASE

[3333glen]

I like this one better than the one with the most views, because Costello gets so frustrated. I'd go farther than to say one of the greatest - I think this is THE greatest sketch of all time.

[colum4469]

so i guess they dont have a rightfielder?

[E1craZ4life]

@colum4469 No one is playing right field.

[shane443019]

@E1craZ4life yes, naturally!

Virginian star Gary Clarke and his talented daughter, Ava, did a brilliant job of this at the recent Memphis Film Festival.

[giraffer77]

[123matster]

Hey guys! Me and my friend did "Who's on First?" for our church (Not as good as this one, because no one can do it better!) But I would love if you guys would watch it! Its on my channel as the first video! Thanks, from a fellow Abbot and Costello fan!

[AbruptEscape]

The best skit ever! Never to be replaced! Thanks Bud and Lou!!!!!!!!

[dkitty8124]

"certainly" in right field would really make this confusing

[SonicFan1CloudZak]

every time i dont fell good i watch abbott and costello and i fell better.

[George040270]

How can anybody say that they do not like quality comedy?

[RemixPicture]

I am amazed that they can remember this whole scene, it's so confusing lol. xD

[TheDaniel83baez]

[Liebling05]

LMAO. This is the funniest thing I've ever seen. PU.... Hahahahahah XD

[luvstartnshit]

I love the little flub around the 5:50 to 6:05 mark when Lou mentions the catcher "Today" and they both start laughing. Classic comedy at it's best

[Enalahs]

I don't see how anyone could not like Abbot and Costello. They are legendary and will always be the funniest comedians of all time.

[TruebladeKai]

Four people don't know who's on first...

[Bugsb129]

Thumbs up if you've seen/heard the original episode airing this sketch.

[lpfreak1708]

Four of the tumbs down are teen trolls. xD

[giraffer77]

[cantwhistleforshit]

@giraffer77 you're an idiot for thinking anyone needs this explained....

[Festa1983]

i heard about this on studio 60 on the sunset strip but they only talked about it for a few seconds and had to check it out this is by far the greatest sketches of all time

[huskyclaw]

[Animan223]

@huskyclaw

Naturally!

[bluechic177]

wait...I don't know who's on 3rd?

[foolycoolycool]

so, it's like this:

Who's on first, What's on second, I Dont Know's on third, Today's the pitcher, Tomorrow's the catcher, Why's the outfielder, and who's on short stop? I Don't Give a Darn.

Is that right?

[carl9z]

@foolycoolycool and because is left field :p

[legendabbott]

@foolycoolycool tomorrows the pitcher Today is the catcher and you forgot about the outfielder Because

[legendabbott]

@foolycoolycool tomorrows the pitcher Today is the catcher and you forgot about the center fielder Because

[foolycoolycool]

@legendabbott

I'm afraid you didn't get the aim of that comment. It's not supposed to be correct.

[billc756]

@foolycoolycool no no no, Who is on First

[foolycoolycool]

@billc756

I'll break your arms if you say Who's on first again! XD

[billc756]

[itsMinuteMaid]

2 people don't know who's on first

[ZotharReborn]

@awesomepanda74 tall guy is abbot, short one is costello.

[budandloushow]

GREAT VERSION!

[rawr729]

how they kept a strait face throughout the routine I will never know...this is a classic

[amartin9880]

@rawr729 only because they have done it countless times before in vaudeville, small theaters, etc

[CCrockyourass]

@amartin9880 But this video is their first performance...I think.

[luvstartnshit]

@CCrockyourass Nope, they performed this on video years earlier. This was done during their run on tv during the colgate comedy hour around 1950.

[CCrockyourass]

@luvstartnshit Doesn't matter anyway, this is the best version.

[luvstartnshit]

@CCrockyourass I agree, I didnt mean any offense, I was just letting you know. to me, it just doesn't get any better than abbott & costello, well, 3 stooges are up there too.

[5jerry1]

@rawr729

It takes amazing self-control to keep from breaking up during this.

[harrywemissu08]

@rawr729 i legit just said that lol

[ThePaxel]

@rawr729 and without losing their train of thought too.....

[escovalez]

these guys are some of the best ever no cussing and still make you laugh so hard i love to see these men do thier thing

[elchafa]

They sound like gangsters

[MeatSim9]

Who do you pay the money to?

Every dollar.

[RootsinBrooklyn]

Geez...singing, dancing AND classic comedy. What year was this? ...And we get Reality TV and Conan. What a bummer.

[TheSwifter19]

@RootsinBrooklyn

[TheZeldagirl10]

This never gets old. xD

I love old TV shows, I hate TV nowdays.

[43superbob]

[theHoustonStrangler]

[TheBigWI93]

@TheShadowsLotus

Im still wondering to this day:

Whos on first?

and Why is No One playing Right Field?

[GoodOlLatino]

@TheBigWI93 "Who" is on first big guy.

[TheBigWI93]

@GoodOlLatino ....I know. I was being sarcastic.

[CCrockyourass]

@GoodOlLatino I don't know. Third base.

[survivorgurl94]

[Ps2Man5960]

2 people have no sense of humor

[futurenurse12]

I saw this clip in a communications class, and I couldn't contain myself. This has always been my favorite clip of Albert and Costello.

[dremagrini]

Does anyone know the song that Dexter is singing in the beginning when Sebastian interrupts him??

[JediKnight0405]

priceless!!!!!!

[SynateDeszeld]

CLASSIC GOTTA LOOOVE IT.

[NO1FlyingAce]

This is the best of Abbott and Costello 

[GalTalk]

If cursing doesn't make comedy good. Then by the same token not cursing wouldn't make it any better either. It's good comedy people, good comedy can have bad language, good language, whatever. It's the idea that matters.

[TheHyde55]

I love their little giggle at 5:39

"You don't wanna tell me...Today...Tomorrow, do you?"

[bjnovak1]

THIS is REAL comedy... there are NO CUSS WORDS AT ALL

[wowloverism]

this is sooo funny love them their name's are abbott (skinny guy) costello (fat guy, the guy who gets mad) they are my fav.

[farrel91]

@ekimfloom "darn"

[CHILL0112]

[2rich4ubud]

Oh man thats funny

[norsefireV]

at least this crowd is more lively than the other version

[PotterWatchFan]

His shirt says P-U!

[Blakbox99]

Thumbs up if you think the two dislikes are EPIC FAILS!! XD

[90geekgirl06]

@Blakbox99 AGREED. The two who disliked this are morons.

[winxclublover]

@Blakbox99

any dislike towards Abbot and Costello would be considered epic fails.

[iheartbananasmoothie]

loove thiis

[ac7491]

[TheLinguist17]

i did this wit a friend for a school "talent show"

[swedeeepie]

Back in those days they couldn't even say 'damn'. Saying 'darn' was the closest they could get.

[armorborgwarclass]
