Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): During Ron White's bit, he talks about his cousin who hunts. He mentions that his cousin has a rifle chambered for the .30-06 Springfield, which launches a bullet at 2,200 feet per second. In reality the .30-06 generates speeds that are considerably higher than 2,200 feet per second. The lightest bullet weight commonly used, 150 grains, will travel at speeds over 2,900 feet per second, and the heaviest bullet, 220 grains, will travel at speeds over 2,400 feet per second.

Quotes:

Larry The Cable Guy: I believe... that Britney Spears should be one of Baskin Robbins' 31 flavors.
Larry The Cable Guy: [laughing] Two scoops!

So-So at best

My Brother-In-Law played the original "Blue Collar Comedy Tour" DVD for me a few months ago. I had never laughed that hard for that long. We purchased the show and have watched it numerous times since then, continuing to enjoy the humor. I had never heard of Ron White before, but he stole the show. When I saw that the "Rides Again" DVD would be available the beginning of December, we preordered it. We received it yesterday and watched it last night. Although the show has some great moments, it was a minor disappointment. Bill is a very funny guy but his stories seemed a little drawn out this time. Jeff has the ability to make almost anything funny, and although his bit was good, it wasn't anywhere near as funny as the first DVD. Larry (who has a great act) just didn't seem to be "on" with most of his jokes (timing was off or something). My biggest disappointment was with Ron. He just didn't seem to care and his jokes were very disjointed. This DVD is worth owning but don't expect it to hold up against the first one. If the first release is a "ten" (which it is), this one is a "five".
