I'll bet that makes his racket stand on end!
... is more or less what Johnny Carson said when this was said to him of Arnold Palmer's wife kissing
his balls before a big tournament. Although Johnny said it about his
putter.
Although actually he didn't. It's one of those apocryphal classic TV bits that never actually happened. Like Grouch's "I love my cigar" joke, which he made on his radio show but which was cut before it aired. The only people who ever heard that joke were the studio audience. But thousands and thousand of people claim that they ACTUALLY REMEMBER seeing it on TV.
