Tube Bar Thread
I saw a Mike Hunt thread and it got me to thinking: how many of you have heard that Tube Bar prank call tape? What's your favorite name (or line)?

For those unaware, a couple of guys back in the 70's made a ton of prank calls to a bar owner named Red in New jersey, asking for people like "Bill Loney" and "Cole Kutz". After a while, Red caught on and would mow them down with some of the foulest language ever. In a nutshell, it's a prank call classic.

4. I Was Walking
Well, trotting, actually, through the O'Hare airport when I heard, over the PA "Mr. Jakinoff, please pick up the white courtesy phone..."

I thought 'Oh, God, no... WAIT for it! It's GOT to be "Ivan"'

and sure enough, the announcement continued "...Will Mr Ivan Jakinoff please pick up the white courtesy phone."

Must've been a new announcer! Had to have been.

SNRKKK!
