Whack a Moe

While it never seemed that way, Moe was the real punching bag for the Three Stooges. Enjoy.

[@battlecross8540]

Fun fact: After the passing of his beloved little brother Jerome (Curly) Howard, Moe started to reenact some of his old antics. Notably his whooping noises and his grunting.

[@Darth234Ravenous]

Based on what I've seen of his history, Moe is kind of a hard edge but loving man. He wasn't overly affectionate with any of his family including his wife and kids but he did clearly care about all of them. Even Larry his lifelong friend. When he passed after so many years Moe fell into a deep depression that eventually took his life. It was almost like he had lost his lifelong brother.

[@Tornado1994]

@@Darth234Ravenous Moe died from Lung Cancer. He chain smoked like all The 3 Stooges. Moe was also an eccentric and often Early Metrosexual man. He loved dressing sharp as a kid and a young man. Moe even had to crossdress as a child, and toured with a Nearly All Girl Water Ballet Troupe in Long Island,NY during 1913-1914. Moe was Doted and Devoted to his family. He Treated Jerry like his Baby Brother, because he was. According to Joan Howard Mauer, Moe was a VERY loving father and was VERY devoted to Helen. Helen in fact, died just several months after Moe.

[@orionsuniversepart2932]

@@georgemaster689 Well not Columbia itself, but Jules White. He was much more worried about the money and less worried about Curly’s health that he downright refused to accept the offer from the other two stooges to let him rest, which was a very bad move and would ultimately lead to Curly’s career-ending stroke. He only appeared in the three stooges short two times and for a short time. One was on “Hold that lion” where Curly played a role of a sleeping passenger with a derby hat and a nose clip. The other, which we don’t have footage on was on “Malice in the palace” where Curly played a role of a hot headed chef.

At 6:50 is the stunt where Moe didn't fall correctly and broke several ribs. You can see he didn't pull off the stunt fall and landed very hard on that pile of wood. His professionalism was of such a degree that he took a breath, stood up, and then after that slap to finish out the scene, he passed out.

His drinking problems affected his health to and had a stroke in 1946 ending his career with The Three Stooges and had only appeared a few more times in cameos.
