[edit] The second picture on the page

The picture in the article claiming that it's a screenshot of Foghorn Leghorn with chickens is incorrect. The picture is of Foghorn's old college roommate, Rhode Island Red, surrounded by chickens. - Kendo_Bunny


Senator Claghorn is significant enough as an iconic character (not just in radio but even spawning a movie and stage play, both obscure admittedly) to deserve his own page, not just a mention in the entry for the more famous character he inspired. Thus, I'm going to try to change the redirect and create a new page for Claghorn.Aleal 20:33, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I agree completely; redirecting "Senator Claghorn" here is not apprpriate. -- Infrogmation 21:15, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Didn't Foghorn wind up in a dire yet somewhat survivable predicamint at the end of every episode?

No. -- Jason Palpatine 19:00, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Oh. Because that happened the shorts The Foghorn Leghorn and Broken Leghorn, I just assumed...oh, never mind.

Another spoken reference to Claghorn's catchphrases is "Pay attention! ... Nice kid, but he doesn't listen to a word you say" which gets repeated when Foggy talks at Henery (of course without letting him get a word in edgeways). Jeremynicholas 09:17, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kellog's Corn Flakes?

My faulty memory can not place FhLh on the cover of Kellog's Corn Flakes. Do we have a reference for this? I just remember a stylized drawing of a rooster.

But wasn't the name Foghorn T. Leghorn, and not just Foghorn Leghorn? And is it politically incorrect to mention that he was regarded by all, especially himself, as the protector of the gals in the run?

  • I've added an image that I believe clarifies his status as the top cock on the farm. --M@rēino 19:57, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quotes

Way, way too many quotes on this page, and not a single one of them is referenced to any episode/short. Yes, the quotes all seem to be things that Foghorn would say, but how do we know that editors haven't merely thrown in their own jokes? Darcyj 22:31, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

GET THAT SECOND PICTUREOUT OF THERE.THAT IS NOT FOGHORN LEGHORN !!!!!!!

  • I dumped all the quotes to Wikiquote, where the experts can handle them. I put the link in the usual spot at the bottom, but if you want to restore the "Quotes" header so that the Wikiquote link can go higher up the page, that's also a decent option for a page like this one where the quotes seem to have been around for a while. --M@rēino 19:51, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Junior

Shouldn't the page say something about Junior? When I picture Foghorn Leghorn, I always picture him talking to Junior.--71.192.56.227 06:15, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
