Tom Noddy's Birthday Celebration 2011

It's a old tradition in vaudeville to be pied in the face on your birthday.

  1. um ... I think that we invented this "old tradition" of birthday pies-in-the-face. I've never heard or read anything from old vaude that referred to pie-in-the-face as anything but a stage comedy bit ... said to have been invented by the father of Oscar Hammerstein II.

    We have the right to invent traditions as well ... a pie in the face on your birthday is an honor.
