Rolling Stone and Yahoo voters named this the funniest ever. It's probably one of the most quoted but I can't say I agree.

Funniest SNL skit of all time

The Chris Farley show is a great read, but sad as shit. I liked a lot of the SNL cast members opinions on the Chippendales skit with Patrick Swayze. A lot of them were like "fuck that skit" and felt hella sorry for Chris.
Dude definitely had some major demons. Drugs, food, booze, and the desire to please people/make people laugh. He said whenever he could push one down, another one would flare up.
Whenever his dad rolled into town, like in Chicago, they'd go to a steakhouse and his dad wouldn't let Chris leave the table until they each finished the 72 oz. steak they ordered. His dad would also order a shot poured at the table, then tell the waiter to leave the bottle there. Dude went from being like 175 his whole life to being over 600 lbs when he died, a couple years after Chris did.
in Jay Mohr's book about SNL, Gasping for Airtime, he tells a story about the first time he met Farley. They were in an office and Jay was being introduced to everyone and Farley comes into the room, walks over to Jay, who's sitting down, and pretends to fall down in front of him. while on his knees, he makes a head bobbing motion over Jay's crotch for a good minute, then pretends to throw up everywhere. Jay said he didn't know whether to laugh or not, because no one else did, and just died laughing because he couldn't help it.
Another time, Jay and Dave Attell were in their office writing, and Chris walked in. They dared Chris to shit out of their 42nd story window onto the street below, and so he hops up on the windowsill, and is balancing his ass out the window, and barely shits out a pebble. He had no TP to wipe with, so he used his hand. He then chased Attell and Jay down the hall, holding his hand out, where Attell made it onto the elevator, but Jay ran into a post in the hallway and fell. Chris was closing in, so Jay pretended his arm was broken, and called Chris an asshole. Chris started apologizing profusely and felt hella bad, and backed up. Jay got up, booked it for the elevator, and looked back. He said he saw Chris standing there with his mouth open, looking confused and sad, and that it haunted him for the rest of his life.
many coolstorybros, but Chris Farley is definitely someone I would have loved to have hung out with, and have heard nothing but awesome stories about him, as a person too.
