The scene of the crime: The Colony Hill.
Mom and Dad are there to see Henny Youngman perform. But the sound wasn't so great in the auditorium, so they didn't quite get every word. Much like her run in with Joey Bishop, Mom managed to get a few words in with the well-known comic as he was exiting the ballroom.
Mom: "Oh, Hi Henny! Too bad the sound wasn't so great. But don't worry about it -- I know all your jokes.
Henny, taken aback, makes a pointing gesture to my mom and says: "Get her."
And, that was the extent of the relationship my mom had with Mr. Youngman.
