      It gets old; and it got old: not really funny anymore, too cliché. But ... on the other hand, when you see it like *THIS* ! This is *way* more complex, because of all the logistics involved. The original only has 2 guys, much easier to coordinate. This one has the *team* present! I dunno who's on third, but it sure looks a whole lot like Seinfeld! ruclips.net/video/K0Jg7pvVzKk/видео.html&pbjreload=101

      Thank you so much, for accessing my reading skills. I appreciate it.
      However, I was merely reflecting on them being "decades ahead of their time.", as the OP put it. Now, if we agree, that things are getting worse, then that would imply, that they were /worse/ than the standard in their time. As you can see from the above answer from Sean Hayes , that is not what he meant, and I didn't think it was.
      That is why I needed clarification.

      They had performed it hundreds of times live for vaudeville audiences. From the different videos I've seen of them performing it, it's not a matter of memorizing the lines exactly. They don't actually do it the same every time. I think there are instances where they can go back and forth with the same joke ("Who's on first?" "Yes." "The guy's name on first base." "Who." "That's what I want to know." "Who is on first." "What are you asking me for?") until one of them comes up with the cue to move to the next segment. So when Lou says, "You got an outfield?" Bud automatically moves on. So they only have to know the cue to move on to the next series of jokes. The stuff in between is like a tape loop for them.

I then proceeded to ask more questions regarding plastic items in the room to which he said, "It's plastic!" I said, "YES...I KNOW that Roger!" and kept guessing..... To which he looked frustrated and confused. As did I. But I kept guessing. Finally, 5 minutes later after Roger repeating that it's plastic, I finally figured it out....I think of that hilariously frustrating moment when I watch this routine.

    OK let me get this straight on what they're talking about as far as positions:
    1st Base- Who
    2nd Base- What
    3rd Base- I Don't Know
    Left Field- Why
    Center Field- Because
    Right Field- ?
    Pitcher- Tomorrow
    Catcher- Today
    Short Stop- I Don't Care

    This is my first time actually hearing the entire gag... here in 2019. And I tell you, I never imagined it was this good and this complex. How long did they have to rehearse to get this routine down? I don't think I could do it with a year's worth of rehearsal.
