OUTSTANDING! Amazing how much comic gold has been mined from one simple, classic formula such as Who's On First ! From Cheech & Chong's "Dave ain't here", to this Johnny-as-Ronnie bit, all the way to the dojo scene in Rush Hour 3("I am Yu").
May Who be on First forever!

Dave is not related to Who's on First in any way shape or form except the word who being mentioned.

Pardon me, mak. I once heard a reviewer or commentator on Cheech & Chong's E! True Hollywood Story refer to the routine as "A drugged-out Who's On First". If they run it again, watch and you'll see.

Maybe that commentator was drugged out. Listen to the actual routines and decide for yourself.
