Ronnie B - use of the "Pants" joke pre-Harry

[giannidesk]

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>Just listening to one of the archived shows from WJFK summer of 05.</p><p>Ron goes on a hilarious 15+ minute rant about Fez's eating of TV dinners.</p><p>At one point he imagines Fez sitting in a dark apartment eating a TV dinner in &quot;jogging pants because he gave up on life&quot;.</p>

And I could have sworn I heard Ronnie drop a Colonoscopy joke a few years ago too.

I'll bet that was just a nod to Harry's pants joke, because they have been busting on Harry for the pants joke for years.&nbsp; Ron throws out all kinds of references that only a few people will get

43% is an interesting find.&nbsp; My calculations yield 37%, but I miss about 6% of the shows.&nbsp; We may be on to something!
