Jokes are made about the darkest of subjects, smoking, drinking, racism, cancer, death etc…humor is humor. It only ceases to be humor to those who get offended and take it seriously.

I've seen a few of Don's in the distant past, and I can't recall him doing what he did here. That is, he's supposed to be roasting Jerry, but he seemed to pick almost everybody but Jerry. I guess when there's so many hockey pucks there, what you gonna do?

I worked with him on a couple of shows in the 90’s . He remembered every crew members name through the entire multi day event. While I was leaning on the monitor console during the opener, he snuck up behind me, grabbed my hips and thrust his groin into my backside repeatedly, like a dog…. I jumped up and spun around expecting a crew member. They were all standing against the wall and had been watching Rickles sneek up on me. Everyone was bent over in laughter. Hilarious!

[@ThatDangerousWolf]

He never wrote a word before his roast performances - not even a script outline. True talent.

Maybe but Rickles pretty much trots out the same lines. He just changes them up a little. Like he busted Charleton Heston's chops with, "if you were Moses, I'm a Mau Mau fighter pilot!" He was using the "Mau Mau fighter pilot" riff for a hundred years. Maybe longer.
