Tim Conway’s Jockey Skit with Bing Crosby Is Comedy Perfection

Tim Conway’s jockey skit with Bing Crosby is comedy perfection. The two entertainment legends joined forces, bringing their immeasurable talents together, making for a good time and many laughs. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see and listen to Tim Conway and Bing Crosby discuss horse racing and being a jockey.

People, especially Americans, love sports and all things competitive. Put anything where two teams or two individuals compete against one another, and whatever that is will soon develop a rabid, dedicated fanbase. Look at how people act when it comes to nearly every sport. Some will literally cover themselves in paint, matching their beloved team’s colors.

Knowing how obsessed people can and do get with sports, it should be no surprise that that enthusiasm does not wane much whenever an animal is involved. The Kentucky Derby, arguably the world's most famous horse race, has developed into quite an event, a spectacle really. People dress to the nines to watch horses run around a track – a race that lasts several minutes, at most.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Tim Conway plays jockey Dag Herford, one of the people who ride the horses. In the skit, Dag is interviewed about his experience as a jockey by the legendary singer and actor, Bing Crosby. Unfortunately for Dag, it’s soon revealed that he’s not the cream of the crop when it comes to jockeys. He has an unconventional approach and take on being a jockey, which has not translated into much success. He has started 1,400 races but only finished 11 of them.

While the entire clip is a laugh riot, without a doubt, the best part of the skit comes at the very end. Bing makes a joke about Dag’s lack of success as a jockey. Dag quickly shoots back, “You don’t sing so good.”

Tim and Bing go back and forth at one another in this hilarious clip. How neither of them broke down into laughter is beyond me.

Job 8:21 “The time will come when your mouth will be full of laughing, and cries of joy will come from your lips.”
