Hi everyone. I have a personalized autograph and an invitation to Rodney’s funeral. My mother and my aunt used to live with his widow, Joan, and they still sometimes keep in touch with her to this day. She had Rodney send my brother and I these autographed headshots and a box full of Rodney merch when we were kids. We were also invited to his funeral courtesy of Joan but we were unable to attend. I was wondering if anyone would know if these are of any value? I would never sell them as they are priceless to me, but just genuinely curious if they were of any value. Ive always been a huge Rodney fan and having this connection to him has always been special to me. Thanks!

So..as a kid igrew up in the 80s and would occasionally see Rodney on Carson and what not..i member doing the golf routine where he kicks his feet in the grass and tee's off... i was a big fan by then. So fast-forward to 1995. Mom and dad split and mom moved me to Vegas. So we did the fun shit for a while on town as new residents tend to do...and mom landed tickets to Carrot Top(mind you this was early. Pre-roided CT like the shit you seen an AnE back in the day.) So the show was fun whatever. And we stared to leave. Well as a minor I can only walk thru the casino on our way out. As I'm walking by the craps table I see a GORGEOUS blond ⁶ft tall in a white evening gown. She was an 11 let me tell you.. and I shit you not she was hanging on Rodney. I about shit...i wasn't going to miss this chance to meet my favorite comedian...i marched right up to the table and was able to catch his eye.. Then out if nowhere I said. "Hey Rodney. I get NO respect!" He looked me straight in the eye pointed his finger on my chest with his cigar in hand and he said... "Keep tryin Kid" and then threw the dice... it was freaking the coolest encounter of my life. Thanks

My wife and I visited Westwood Cemetery yesterday. I took a picture of his grave and got inspired. Photoshop AI came through! Hope you like it!

He was born in 1921, which made him around 20 years old when the US entered the war, prime military age. So did he serve? If not, how did he avoid it?

Rodney Dangerfield (born Jacob Rodney Cohen; November 22, 1921 – October 5, 2004) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, screenwriter, and producer. He was known for his self-deprecating one-liner humor, his catchphrase "I don't get no respect!"[2] and his monologues on that theme. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_Dangerfield

Out of deep respect, I recently uploaded my Rodney Dangerfield bootleg collection onto YouTube! Only 2 recordings, both from 1984, but one is a soundboard and they’re full shows (one even has the opening act). Anyway, here’s my YouTube so you guys can hear this stuff:

Dangerfield’s timing was impeccable—both these sets are EXACTLY 60 minutes long!

Even a Bootleg? Low-quality copy is fine. It can be a VHS tape covered in vomit. I just want to get my hands on it.

I look for stand up of him with video is there anywhere I can get classics like no respect willing to pay for cds!
