We stood in line in New Orleans for 7+ hours to see the Tut exhibit back when
THANK YOU! I needed that smile! Yes, SNL was funny on the occasion and in the past! NOW? Rarely and unlikely!
Steve Martin - THANKS!
Born in Arizona....I guess it just rhymes
“Funky Tut” would be a great FR screen-name!
Funny article about how 30 years later the video was played in a college humanities class for fun and to prompt discussion, but totally triggered social justice students into a frenzy, equating it to cultural appropriation and blatant racism.

Saw it live at a house party. Back when SNL was a 90-minute party-stopper...when it was great!
I was in Tuts tomb in February. The old boy is still there in a glass case. Much of what was found is in the Cairo Museum. I could have spent days in that museum but only had two hours.
Saw him when I was in college in the late seventies. Great Night
