This is a remake of Charley Chase's 1940 comedy "The Heckler". As good as that film is, Shemp improves the material. He is an obnoxious sports fan whose loud comments disrupt not only the players but the other fans. Shemp has always been in the shadow of his younger brother Curly, but he is a successful solo comedian, something his younger brother could never have been. Ed Bernds keeps the pace of the film fast and there is a gag with a giant cotten swab that has to be seen to be believed!
