In which Bugs fights the Honeymooners
Seriously, Bugs is on his way to Chattanooga and their bumper carrot crop when he opts to hop the rails. Pity the car he chooses is already occupied by NOT Ralph Kramden and NOT Ed Norton. The two hobos are a bit peckish and would LOVE to have Bugs for lunch...
Decent. Having the hobos be Ralph and Ed is funny but if you're unfamiliar with the Honeymooners this short might be odd. This also tended to get censored quite a bit, so if you can get the unedited version strive for that.
Also one of the few later made shorts were Bugs doesn't win. Interesting choice but this doesn't really make the short stand out.
