miwaf12 Posted November 8, 2023 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Milton Berle's quick wit and comedic timing were his trademark, and this joke is a great example of his ability to turn a simple question about a cigar into a funny and memorable moment. The humor lies in the unexpected and playful comparison of the cigar to a "Lawrence Welk," which is a reference to the famous bandleader and television personality. The joke also relies on the idea that the cigar's fancy band, often used to make a cigar look more appealing or of higher quality, is just a facade. In reality, the quality of the cigar itself may not be as good as the presentation suggests. Berle's response effectively combines wordplay, satire, and a touch of self-deprecation, all of which were hallmarks of his comedic style. This type of humor is characteristic of Milton Berle's stand-up comedy, where he often used clever one-liners and wordplay to engage and entertain his audience. It's a classic example of how comedians can take everyday situations and turn them into comedic gold through their unique perspective and delivery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
