People would come to the theater expecting this comic genuis, an announcement would be made that Mr. Ward was ill, and a subsitute would be performing, and after about 15 minutes of Ward's fumbling, almost pathetic performance, they realized the joke. Andy Kaufmann's "Foreign Little Man" used the same technique. </p> http://austinist.com/2007/04/27/saturday_night_all_hamburger_no_helper.php#comment-1080576 http://austinist.com/2007/04/27/saturday_night_all_hamburger_no_helper.php#comment-1080576 Comments Fri, 27 Apr 2007 12:30:14 -0600 <p>pleaseeasaur is AMAZING. </p>
