"I wouldn't even bury a rat in Stamford CT." Haha spoken like a true Southerner
As soon as Brian mentions George and Corny goes "awww" I was like "Fuck Bruce was telling the truth!"
George worked his butt off to help get Mick over. George loved the business like his owner.
Damn you nearly killed me with that one 😂
George was a great technician as well as a great worker.
@@drido Honestly, George wasn't that good a worker. His promo skills and charisma, however, were off the chart.
Kudos to him for never trying to cash in by using the Cornette name.
George 🐀 has way more talent for the wrestling business than 95% of the current crop of “talent”
what did i just walk into LMAO
I love how Cornette even found it hysterical that Prichard said Corny missed six weeks of work because of this lol.
George 3:16 says I just ate your cheese.
best comment I have seen in a while XDXDXD
Bruce Pritchards take on this is fucking hilarious, his impression of Corny is funny as hell.
‘I wouldn’t bury my pet Rat in Stamford for fucks sake!’ 😂😂😂😂😂
George wasn't a rat. He was a pet.
I mean, he was a rat and a family member. Animals are family. Species doesn't mean a living being is worth less.
He was a per rat.. . plenty of people have em lol
Whereas plenty of wrestlers were known to pet their rats, Corny had a rat as a pet
He tickled corny’s sphincter with the pitter-patter of his little feet
I know this old, but I just heard Bruce's telling of this story and wanted to her Cornette addresses it himself. I don't get what is funny about the story of George's passing. Jim wanted to take care of a pet, a friend, and was willing to spend the money to help. As a ferret owner, I get it. You do whatever you can to help them out, regardless of the cost if you can afford it. I'm happy to hear Jim call George a member of the family and go out of his way to give George a proper and respectful burial. That's how all pets should be treated. I respect the hell outta Jim for this.
Personally what i found funny was how none of the things bruce said was false. Whilst when I was listening to bruce I assumed he had to have been exasperating. Personally I find it cute that Cornette cares so much about his pet.
My four ferrets are running around, now....
Bigman Dogs I think you meant exaggerated, not exasperated. They have different definitions.
Oh, relax. Obviously not everyone's going understand spending over a grand on a rodent. Most people are absolutely disgusted by mice & rats, & consider them to be vermin. I had pet mice, people thought I was a lunatic...it's really not that serious.
@@sese6227 there's a big difference between a domestic rat or mouse and a wild one.
It doesn't matter the size of the pet. If it's a member of the family, and you can afford it, why not?
"As a matter of fact Bruce has mentioned the size of George's balls were just enormous." 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That part took me out. 🤣🤣🤣 leave it to corny to put over how big the rat's balls were.
I've had a pet rat and they are awesome. Everything Corny said it's true. I didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
Gotta love Cornette getting George TV time and using Foley to get him over! 😆
In pro wrestling, it is perfectly normal for one of the boys to take a rat to a hotel and get into bed with it.
Corny has pointed out how important it is to keep the rats happy.
ahhhh.... ring rats!
"I wouldn't bury my pet rat in Stanford for fucks sake"
😂😂😂
neither would I
Why would someone apparently desperately hope that Cornette didn't spend money to take care of his pet rat? Those things aren't dumb like mice... they are like having a pet ferret or rabbit in terms of intelligence. Honestly, a big rat is probably smarter than a typical rabbit.
I love that Jim Cornette was willing to spend money to help his little buddy when he needed Jim's help. I'd have done the same exact thing and I'm proud of the compassion my parents and life taught me and Jim should be proud of being a good human being too. I'll tell the listeners who are skeptical just one thing... Cornette and Stacey are still married while everyone else seems to be going to sleep unmarried and waking up on their third divorce.
A lot of us would spend money to save our pets. George wasn't a rat. He was a pet.
So, a really dumb animal then.
Stacey wasn't his wife at the time...
@@tbx59 Well he was making the point that rats are way smarter than we think they are. Most people think of them as dumb rodents. But they would probably be very common pets if they were cuter like rabbits etc.
If its not an animal people like or think is normal then they cant see how someone else could spend money. I have an anaconda and a bunch of boas. I would spend thousands of dollars to save their lives. Just like I would my dog. If people don't Find it to be normal in their life then they are just going to be judgmental about it.
Corny, I'm from Philly and I can tell you that you went through Southwest Philly- generally a HORRIBLE neighborhood!
So George pretty much saved his life!
"oh goddamn!"
When I heard about George from Prichard I was laughing but now after hearing it from Corny I am moved.
6:22 Damn right Jim! If this Southern boy died, I wouldn't want my relatives to bury me in Yankee soil.
You did the absolute right thing by George, sir!
No proud member of the union would want a traitor buried next to them
Balzac T. Bagher fuck you you yankee
@@fucker661 Ok Ballsack
I would absolutely spend money to save my pet rat.
1100 bucks? My Mom wouldn't even take our sick dog to the vet.
I was sent here by bruce prichard and there is now no doubt. Cornette is a good human being. This goes into my favorites
Being from Illinois I can say Brian Last got that town name.....100% right.
Rodents are awesome pets. I had to get a baby feeder mouse for my baby ball, bc he wouldn't eat. I took one look at the little guy, & didn't have the heart to feed her to Bill. Ended up spending a fortune on a proper cage, toys, wheels & had to buy another mouse, bc apparently they're social animals...but they lived about 2 years and they were the sweetest little things. Bill eventually ate, so it all worked out.
I've lived my entire life in Connecticut, and I don't want to be buried here either...
LOL
I love how Jim references the mesothelioma gag
Great for you Cornette, I spent over $100 on mine.
George The Rat had a more fruitful WWF/E career than Missy Hyatt, Nathan Jones, Buff Bagwell, or Eva Marie.
Prichard never said he missed six weeks of work due said cornette missed six weeks worth of work
Damnnit now Im sad for Jim and George. RIP.
I know this is an old story, BUT I love it still. I’m not surprised he wouldn’t bury a beloved pet with those “yankee m fers” lol 😂
I had a pet rat when I was 14. He had a distinct red nose so we called him Clown. He’s was the coolest pet I ever had
Prichard telling the story had me in hysterics LOL
Corny: our pet rat, George has died; going home.
Bruce Prichard: Corny ran over a squirrel and was beside himself with grief; we didn't see him for six weeks (that could be the name of my next podcast....).
Lol 😂 did you ever find it
RIP George and his huge balls
So prichard was right about the mesothelioma. What a story
I thought Bruce was joking abt that! Who knew?
I've been waiting for this.
This is the greatest Cornette story ever. Wow
Kewanee is pronounced “KEE-wah-nee,” btw. North Central Illinois town. About two and a half hours SE of Chicago, maybe an hour east of the Quad Cities and about an hour or so northish of Peoria.
This is epic to hear !
Good for you Jim. We love what we love and nobody should question it.
Pritchards story is hilarious
George was in the Mankind Vignettes? 😮😮 Daym he was famous
Good to see two buddy’s still rubbing and laughing together all these years later.
Too much old bitterness in some of our old heroes
George for Hall of Fame 2022!
Vince in the booking meeting
"We need a rat for the Mankind promos"
Corny "Hell my pet rat George can do it btw when he dies I'll take a day off from work"
Dang so Bruce really was telling the truth 😂
Lmao. This is the weirdest story ever.
It's sad I would never pay that much for any pet that I've ever had
Okay few things..
I hated pet mice and rats until my friend put her pet rat on me (her's was called nutsack for the reason Jim explains in this vid 😂) and it was like a tiny puppy. After that, I can't blame him for being attached as the ones born it captivity are awesome little creatures..
If you don't treat your pet like a child, you're not a real pet owner imo. So good for Jim looking out for George..
If Bruce Pritchard laughed at George dying, he go straight to hell!
I love corny's videos getting mad at people, but it's a pleasant surprise to see a caring side to him lol..
And lastly we'll leave the burying in Connecticut to triple h 😂
Ok that's a fitting name for a rat. I did the same thing for a horse in a video game. As a pre-order bonus for Red Dead Redemption 2 I got a really good horse, a Thurobred (I'm sure I misspelled that). He was really fast with good stamina. He had a beautiful chestnut coat. So I was riding him around trying to come up with a name for him when I caught sight of between his legs. Rockstar is known for going the extra mile and adding extra anatomy to things in their games. I like that cause it feels more realistic than making them smooth all the time. I like that more developers are doing that. After what I saw it was only fitting he be named Black Cherry. If it isn't obvious why it's cause they looked like massive black cherries.
Still my favorite vignettes
Jim's a proper pet owner
This can't be real life.
Conrad brought me here
Oh god damn!!!
I had no idea George was actually Cornette's real pet rat. That's hilarious hahaha!
1972 Year of the Rat!
George 🐀 deserves to be in the Hall of Fame!!!
He understood the wrestling business better than 95% of the current crop of “talent” and I’d much rather watch George 🐀 and Mick than Twinkle Toes, the Hardly Boyz or most of AEW
Should've took George to Dr Doolittle
lol I thought they was gonna talk about savages girlfriend
Story confirmed lmao!!
Lord have mercy corney spent 1100 bucks on a rat WTH. 😳
Would this officially be Jim's first rat in the business :)
The first one with big balls. 😂😂😂
Baaa duuuum psssh!
I've owned pet rats. If my family didn't already have too many animals already I would gladly have more. And I'll say it right now:
I'd spend a lot of money on surgery if I could afford it to keep them alive.
Ha maybe that was the same rat i seen in a wwf show in the 90's or 2000's(j/k)
February/March 1996 WWF TV tapings.
aw jim your makeing me sad here.
(i've got a dog and i can see what he's getting at.)
Omfg I fucking love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GODSPEED GEORGE!!!!!!!!!
Not a very "democrat" description of the low-lives in Philly.
Why are you so critical of people? You don't have to be a social justice warrior, but to call someone a low-life who you don't even know is kinda bad. My general rule is I talk about people the way I'd like to be treated, and if someone who doesn't know me or my personal story calls me a "low life" without even giving me the chance to say hello, then that's pretty bad. Lol. But do your thing.
Someone married Bruce Pritchard 🧐
He said there was some truth to the story when really it was ALL true.. lol
Funny. Really strange. But funny....
Minorities?
Jim is lying, they fed George to Damien.
Too bad Corny doesn't know about the times George rooted around in my areshole for fun...
Strange comment are you mentally well?
Lol smh. He says this so normally;
Michael B Chicago sadetwizelve Animals are family.
"you people" just don't get it
Rats are considered some of the best pets you can get. Educate yourself.
Jim sounded a little racist in this story about (minority’s). Are is it just me?
Just you we all know that shit is true
young17ish He’s a good liberal.
@@travismcdonald6576 he's a leftist racist.
You spell like an inner-city high school dropout.
Cornette is speaking from experience.
WTF is wrong with him.
Why do you always point out the race of black people? Instead of saying minorities, why couldn't you just say "people". I've heard you tell other stories about homeless people/drunks/shady characters who were white, and you never pointed out their race. You just called them "bums" or "alcoholics", like w/ the Bobby Eaton in Dallas story. But every time there's a black person in one of these stories, you gotta go out your way to say "minorities". Lol I mean man, as a black guy, it kinda makes me feel pretty sh*tty to be a fan of yours, Jim. You constantly go out of your way to specify that you're talking about black people when you mention shady characters instead of just saying "shady people". But you never say "a shady white guy" in your stories..you'd say "a shady guy". I don't get it. Does saying "minorities" make the story scarier or something? I thought people are people.
