Unless, of course, the person under the horse has both legs in the air. :p

Y'know, come to think about it, you never see a statue of Catherine the Great...

The story I heard on this is Mr. Blanc would actually chew on a carrot in the studio to get the 'Bugs is chewing on a carrot' sound effect. He would then spit it out so he could deliver his lines. Someone witnessing this must have taken it to mean he was allergic.

Very interesting!

Much like the way people in food commercials spit out the bites they are filmed taking, and the way women in porn...um, never mind. :p

Yes Scotz, we just chose not to, as there are tender ears.

Tender ears in this place? Boy, did someone take a wrong turn on the info superhighway...

Is Joe Camel off on holidays?
