That's right you heard me. Sing along and follow the bouncing frito.

LOL, I knew this voice sounded familiar. It's freakin' Bugs Bunny.

I did some digging and found that Frito Bandito's voice actor was Melvin Blanc who was also the voice actor for (you guessed it) Bugs Bunny, Speedy Gonzales, Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, and Barney Rubble.

Great find! Thanks for posting and sharing. I had no idea that the Frito Bandito's voice was Mel Blanc's.

It wasn't a hard search. You can HEAR the Speedy Gonzales in Bandito's voice.

LOL from the first "Aye, yii, yii, yiiii," I could just see Bugs strolling along, and singing some song, ol' Bugs was always singing something.

But yea, you could just about hear a little bit of Bugs, daffy and all the other voices he did over the years come through in the Frito Bandito.

not going back quite as far as the Frito Bandito, which ran from '67 to the early 70's I believe. Anyone remember Space 1999 ? It was just another cheesy 70's scifi t.v. show

First aired in '75

Quote:

Basic premise

The underlying storyline of Space: 1999 centered on the plight of the inhabitants of Moonbase Alpha following a calamity on September 13, 1999 (hence the title). A huge nuclear waste dump on the far side of the Moon detonates in a massive thermonuclear explosion initiated by the build up of magnetic radiation which was released causing a nuclear chain reaction. The force of the explosion causes the Moon to be sent hurtling out of Earth's orbit and into deep space at colossal speed, stranding the 311 crewmembers, in effect becoming the "spaceship" on which our heroes travel, looking for a new home. During their interstellar journey, the Alphans encounter a vast array of alien civilizations, dystopian societies, and strange phenomena previously unseen by man.

OK, next test... How many of you ate Space Food Sticks(tm) as a child back in the late 60's or early 70's? I remember MAKING my mom ask the manager at Brookshires at Madison Park when they would get space food sticks. Eventually they did. I was in space !

Space Food Sticks, I wonder what marketing genius came up with that idea

Nope can't say I ever had one of those, or ever heard of such.

And lets not forget
A-OK Space Energy Sticks
