Fat Albert

[Supermercado]

Okay, someone here has to know this...

Several years ago in high school, one of my teachers told us about some game that Fat Albert used to play in the cartoon or something. He got mad at us when we started to actually play it, though, because it involved piling several people up on a person's back, trying to knock them off their feet, I think. My question is this: what is the name of that game? This is one of those things that you just have to know the answer to, otherwise it will keep bugging you. Does anyone know?

I believe it was a cartoon (or maybe a comic strip or something) made by Bill Cosby.

I wonder if the terming "bucking" had the same meaning back then... :Q

"You guys remind me of summer vacation.....NOooooooo Claassssssss"

That's one of those 70's cartoons that would never make it past the P.C. censors today.

Heyba Manba.

I remember watching Fat Albert back in the early 80's.

I knew some guys in high school that would play buck buck during idle times outside, like during marching band practice. Not really my style, though.

I think I have that Cosby album around here somewhere. Very funny stuff and he can do it without swearing up a storm.

 

[UglyCasanova]

Yeah. I remember.

No doubt. Too bad I missed that Fat Albert Christmas show last year. I wonder how bad it was.

In an unrelated story -- Every time I see a Fat Albert picture, it reminds me of Notorious B.I.G. :Q
