Here's makers of Mom, the safer deodorant, and by tell us, for well-gruned hair, bring you Duffy's Tavern starring Archie himself and Gardner! Hello, Duffy's Tavern, where do you meet the Archie the Manager's bacon, Duffy ain't here?
Oh, oh, Duffy, business, uh, normal. Yeah, none. Well, I think we're victims of circumstances, Duffy. We just can't seem to find a customer with a nickel and a thirst at the same time. Well, don't blame me because our liquor happens to be non-habit forming.
Lucky that people come into this joint at all. I wasn't such a genial bartender. Goodness sakes, where we'd be. Well, it may pleasure to know, Duffy, I'm in a contest. They're a contest for the most popular bartender on Third Avenue.
Duffy, I hope that was a sneeze. Well anyway, the first prize is a free trip to Atlantic City, so don't be surprised if you get a postcard showing me down to me wasting bading beauties.
That goes so cute. Hey, Miss Ojut, this bar tend to popularly contest. You really think you got a chance? Not Eddie, you've got to admit that one, I got the good looks, two personality, three, chum, yeah.
But on the other hand, people hate you. Three out of four ain't bad. Look Eddie, I gotta be voted the most popular bartender. For the last four days, I've been giving out three drinks to everybody.
Yeah. But you've been giving them that duffest special bar ride. That's right. I give them a drink and then they send in postcards voting for me. Yeah, but after that bar, I hardly go hold a stomach and write postcards at the same time.
