uhhhhh writing the one joke and repeating it didn't take long? Artie is a fat, drug addict loser who's never worked a real day in his life and who's laziness killed his dad. (seriously, he skipped work holding his dad's ladder to play pool) the fact Artie's still alive proves there is no god or reason to anything
I remember working with Lange on some of those lines when we first started doing sketch comedy. of course I got to play johnny trinno in beerleague which was awesome.
Dude you were hilarious in Beer League! What an underrated movie. I remember showing that movie to friends back in high school. We laughed our asses off and learned some new dirty words.
I don't think artie was far off from joe pesci himself.... grew up in jersey, was involved in a lot of things both legal and illegal, and both very talented & funny which is directly a result of where & how they grew up, the things they saw/did, etc
In Middle School my buddy get picked up by the cops with over 20Gs making book. He was about 12 years old, true story...it's the neighbor and the I-A culture. Lange is doing a bit from the guys in the neighbor
this proves Artie was never a comic....just a degenerate loser. His "act" is his life....and we all saw it played out on TV and Radio. "Beer League" is a hack movie by a hack comic doing "bits" he's been living since grade school. Sad. But he did manage to win the lottery.... so hats off to you Artie!
The best part is you know Artie wrote this whole skit and it didn't take long. Artie is god.
I think it's funny that the last name is DeVanza and his character in Beer League is DeVanzo
They should have made this in to a show.
Pffft

Taking a shit dosen't take long either... this is the comedic equivalent.

You are the fucking man, palumbo! Funny as all hell in beer league. And you're absolutely right, that little girl's dancing was certainly atrocious!
@Johann Albrecht well...thats ok...
....still in character ?
It's still like pitching to a healthy Lou Gehrig.

Artie plays such a great sleezbag lol.
Plays?
@@Chris_Picklepants He's not a sleezbag. He's not a good heart. Stuttering John is a great example of a sleazebag.
@@TRIIGGAVELLI - fair point. Stuttering John is a total sleazebag.
artie has a good heart but all the trama he went through lead him down dark roadss so he learned how become a sleazebag.
Clearly written by Artimus Maximus Langus.
I'm convinced Artie just Ad-Libbed this scene.. he substituted the New York Giants, with da' Tigas'
Devanzo is Artie's name in Beer League as well
This Artie Klein guy must be short on material.
Come the fuck out to Arizona
Yeah, they did all that fucken’ shit!
@@peterthompsoncomedy
Do you even know who fuckin' John Fogerty is?!
@Nathan Tenny that fucker's a rock singer. He can get out of the sand trap like nobody's fucking business
It's amazing how good Artie is here.
This is his life. Gambling 🎰 non stop lol
I think Artie was channeling Joe Pesci. I mean, he's believable.

^^ Rare 7 year old comment followed by a 7 month old comment.
Lol. Just saw this. It's a fantastic sketch
another awkward year later comment
@@KeithsReviews Exactly
This should be a movie.
"Written"? Nah they just stuck a camera in Artie's face on Saturday afternoon when he was hustling for speedball money.
old school mad yv, looks like a 80s telecast but it's still good
TrevorKane this was probably when it aired in early early 00’s. I watched MadTV in ‘04 ‘05 ‘06 and it looked much better
It's weird because back on those crappy TVs it actually looked better, for some reason these high res screens make it look worse than it actually was
It was probably purposely shot this way to depict an 80’s after school special. If you grew up then you would know.
1:23 lmao
I feel like Artie actually bet on little league games in real life
I wouldn’t put it past him 😂
Artie is awesome. He knows a lot about sports, probably because he bet. The man has incredible talent.
"Now you two beat it, I'm disgusted with you."
Artie sure does love the broccoli rab
I'm using your shirt for toilet paper 😂😂😂
This was a classic. I've seen it a hundred and I lmao each time I see it. Thanks for posting it!!!!
^^Rare 8 year old comment. Greetings from 2018
"its a Round Robin"...me n my pals use it to this day to. desscribe a bs deal.
HILARIOUS
Thanks for putting this up.My favorite skit from Artie during his MAD tv years.Hilarious!
Artie Lange the best 😄💪👍
“Strike my son out”
True professional, cant even tell he is on coke.
Arties dream gig
How this was never a full featured movie, I'll never know. It would be a cult classic!
Beer League was in the same realm, in some sense... but yes, this premise would have been fucking gold
Omfg 😂😂😂😂 this should be a whole Netflix series…. #ArtieLange bro! Do something special with this character. It’s Not too late.
Artie lange is fucking great
Great skit
The chick with the big glasses looks exactly like Howard Stern. A prediction of the future?
the kid name is gary LOL
tmac and he said “Tod LEVY is up” awfully close to bob levy lol!
And he said Robin
@@chaseblunt495 and that she said your father will be disgusted in you perhaps like Arties father knowing that relationship
You know what to do
“Yeah! Strikeout my son!”
This is awesome 😎
Artie is really funny.
"what else you got, Come On!" Hahaha
Artie in full out Artie mode.
i saw the title and knew it was artie lange before watching a second
Bwhahaha this is a gem!!!
"DeVanza" 😂 it's the Beer League prequel
This is hilarious!!!!!!
Funny part is .... Artie ain’t acting 😂
"Sounds like half a sissy" can't say dat today
Derron Browning great comment
Can 2
I love how all Art’s characters are named DI Vanzo
All time !!!!
Mr.divanzo lol beer league

Fucking brilliant
Conditional statements keep the bookie paid.
I feel like he actually does this, bit w NFL games and horse races.
2:19 Hahahahaha!
*TODD LEVY* hehehe
This is such a North Jersey thing. I am the same age as Artie and had my first bookie at around 17 growing up in West Orange. 😂
Nice cell phone artie
This performance belongs to the man who was the star of Beer League and then he wrote this shit nice
Beer league 2
Is that Howard from Big Bang Theory as the kid who owes Artie?
He reminds me of belushi

It’s a funny skit but not well balanced... like Artie 😂
This isnt funny at all
lol NOT funny..
Awful
Tremendous.
this proves Artie was never a comic....just a degenerate loser.
