Shecky Greene

There is a famous story about an incident that happened to Greene in Las Vegas. He had gone out drinking after a show one night, got completely blitzed, hopped into his car and drove down the main street of Vegas. As he got to Caesars Palace, he lost control of the car, hit a post and bounced off it into the large gushing fountain in front of the Palace. When onlookers pulled him out of the car, he yelled "No spray wax!". Greene often told that story about himself, but in an interview he gave when he was 85 years old, he revealed that although the incident itself actually did happen, he never said "No spray wax"; his friend Buddy Hackett added that line when he told friends about it.
