My fav was Kobayashi against the bear in the made for TV man vs beast special. That was one of the best hours of TV ever. Thirty midgets in a strength contest vs an elephant. A fast black guy vs a zebra in the 100 m dash. How do you top that?

Man, that bear totally snarfed those dogs. He didn't even have to chew them - just licked them up off the plate. The best was Michael Buffer introducing the bear.

That kind of show makes me wish I still had TV.

It didn't matter who it was. It just needed to be a fast black guy. That's not racism that's satire for those that can't tell.
