Butt, Here Comes Popeye

Popeye’s known for using his fists a lot after chowing down on spinach, but in You Got To Be a Football Hero (1935), he uses his butt to help score the winning touchdown.

Here’s a butt swish with action lines.



Wham!



A good view of it.



Wham again!



The best gag in the cartoon is cheerleader Olive Oyl spelling out Bluto’s name with her body.

Willard Bowsky and George Germanetti get the animation credits.
