Funny movie quotes from Playing the Ponies

Funny movie quotes from Playing the Ponies, starring the Three Stooges – In Playing the Ponies, the Three Stooges are tricked into trading their ineptly-run restaurant for Thunderbolt, a washed up racehorse. When Curly accidentally feeds Thunderbolt some chili pepperinos by mistake, the horse runs like lighting towards the nearest water trough. Realizing the pepperinos can lead Thunderbolt to victory, the Stooges try to win their money back by entering Thunderbolt in a big race.

Customer: Say, waiter, what’€™s this dog growling at me for?

Customer: Oh. [pushes plate away]


Larry (Larry Fine): [looking at stains on customer’€™s tie to make out his bill] Let me see, you had chicken soup, tenderloin steak, and coffee.  Is that all? [customer tries to hide another stain] Eh-eh — custard pie.

Larry (Larry Fine): [hitting Moe with alarm clock] How time flies!

Moe (Moe Howard): The other horse!


Moe (Moe Howard): [to Larry] Pipe down, ya wanna make Thunderbolt less nervous?
