I didn't get it, and I've seen Young Frankenstein dozens of times.  That's one of the more obscure lines, IMO.

I am quite surprised by this.  One of my favorite scenes.  And characters.  "A riot is an ugly thing..."  "Footsteps!  Footsteps!"

TIL that actor (Kenneth Mars) is the playwright in The Producers!

I have to admit, when I watch that scene, I'm more focused on the wooden arm gags.  As to The Producers, Mars had one of my favorite lines, "Was ist das 'Baby'?  Der Fuhrer never said 'Baby!'."

The ECAC wound up meh in inter-conference record, mostly because we got wiped out by the CCHA of all conferences.

At least it wasn't a dumpster fire, but our okay records against the HEA and NCHC had set us up for better.  Oh well.
