The scene from Sideways is pretty danged hilarious, so I'll go with that one.

"Those *&%ers hit into us!?!?!"

I'd have to go with the Robin Williams stand up. Why not include commercials though? The Nike commercial where Woods and a row of golfers drive it 300 is the funniest. And the one w/Darth Vader on the putting green.

Honestly I didn't even think the monologue scene in Caddyshack was the funniest part. Dangerfield had many more funny moments in that movie.

The Robin Williams bit is just classic.

George Carlin way ahead of his time w/ the anti 1%. Too angry to be funny though. His bit about baseball and football was way funnier.

Or the Nike commercials where Tiger Woods is explaining how golf's not hard. The 300 yard fairway bunker shot cracks me up every time.

"First: Hit the ball 300 yards

Second:Don't hit the ball more than 300 yards. If necessary, take a 3/4 swing.

Third: Hit the flagstick. This will leave you a very makeable eagle putt."

I hadn't seen it before...hilarious:

I agree that there are some commercials that were much better than the 44 in this article.

The Robin Williams is a timeless classic.

Some of the old stuff was really good...for its time.

I refuse to watch anything George Carlin or listen to it.  I used to think he was funny until I hear him go on a tear about Americanism and patriotism...basically putting it down.  After than, he was dead to me.  Never watched him again and will not watch anything he did.

There were lots of funny old Nike commercials. One where Woods tackles a guy stealing his bag. There's another one that's not even on YouTube where Charles Howell and someone else rib each other by saying, "Hey batter batter" in the middle of their backswings. Then one of them proceeds to rip it and then gives the other a bite me look.

Some recent European Tour commercials are very funny too.

This, is how you make use of HD. Imho, this is a perfect commercial. Choosing Mozart, the sexual innuendos, the cat, the kid, the guy in the bunker, the guy dropping the beer, the caddie club handoff in the background, Paul McGinley's (?) face. If you know nothing about golf, you'll still get it.

I love the Robin WIlliams bit

also I think this TIger Buick giveaway commercial/promotion deserves mention
