    I think it's great that Fred Schneider has a variety of people in his video.

  • Thumbs up if you've done the Disco Garbage Can at a party or other public place. I know I have!

    Seriously, though, I love this song. My dad and I will randomly yell out "Who threw that ham at me!?!" and my mom's like "wtf?" XD

see all

  • Fred Schneider is a man!!!kkkkk..amazing!!!

  • This should be remixed with Paula Deen when she got hit in the face with a Ham.

  • I heard it on Fire Island in the late 80s....from a guy that said he just saw it himself right before the ferry picked him up,,lol

  • @tomakoma99 really? Is it a Gay Urban Legend? I do definitely remember being told the story from my haircutter back in the 80's in NYC, and she said it happened right in front of her on line at the grocery store (see my recent comment). If she told the story to me, she must have told a lot of other people. I definitely told it to a number of people over the years. It's funny to hear such an old story pop up in a song so many years later.

  • Back in the 80's, I got my haircut a number of times in Manhattan by a woman (I THINK her name was Julia) who told me that she was in line at a grocery store and the woman in front of her dropped a canned ham out of her coat and yelled "Who threw a canned ham at me?". I always remembered that story because I thought it was a riot. I wonder if she also cut Fred Schneider's hair at some point and told the same story to him... way too much of a coincidence. Funny!

  • DISCO GARBAGE CAN, FLIP YOUR LIDS LOL

  • Fred, I love your seriously screwed up humor ! My favorite bit is the appearance of the lovely PJ and Paul at 3:25 - love the joy in their faces.

    PS - don't shoplift - I used to work in a drug store in Boston where this happened - business men in suits steeling total crap- totally humiliating to get caught - so not worth the risk !

  • It's a fantastic song and a funny video. Almost as hypnotic as "toss that beat in the garbage can"

    I really like it!

  • lol WUT?
