Quotes

Moe: [stuck in wet cement] Boy, if I could get my hand out of this, I'd crack your head open!

Moe: No.
Curly: Sure?

[Curly sticks his tongue out, and Moe promptly slaps him]

Alternate Versions

The part where dozens of golfballs fall out of Curly's pants was cut from the "Three Smart Saps" DVD, which is part of the "Three Stooges" collection courtesy of Columbia/Tristar Home Video. The scene only ended after Moe bops Curly on the head, and the rest of the scene was cut out, too. However, this short was re-released on DVD in October of 2007 completely uncut (and properly restored/remastered) as part of the "Three Stooges Collection Volume 1: 1934-1936" DVD set.

THE ULTIMATE EPISODE TO WATCH!!!

This is by far the best short episode i have seen, the most madcapped, slapstick episode created. Moe, Larry and Curly each exhibit their best performances as wannabe golfers, who in their usual way, ruin almost an entire golfcourse, i couldn't get over the laughs in this one! definate 10 out of 10 material!
