That’s the one!
And also the bar watching Kelly and some other girl get into it:
Crowd: CAT FIGHT, CAT FIGHT!!
Kelly: If you don’t stop, I’ll, I’ll hurt your feelings!!
Crowd: Kitten fight, kitten fight.
That’s the one!

sounds like a plot from “Gary’s Olde Time Tavern”
Damn! I was going use that one. IIRC, what Cliff was going on about was about how the people in his family had an extra set of molars in the back, which was proof that they were the rightful heirs to the Russian throne, or something like that.
“How’s the world treating you, Mr. Peterson?”
“Like a dog treats a fire hydrant.”
I can’t think of a single bad episode of that series.

It’s a dog eat dog world and I’m wearing Milkbone underwear.
“What’s shaking Mr. Peterson?”
“All four cheeks and a couple of chins.”
“How’s the word treating you Mr. Peterson?”
“Like a baby treats a diaper.”
What I especially loved about that episode was seing Alex Trebek, possibly the most courteous, deferential person on the planet, gratuitously lambasting Cliff for his incredibly idiotic bet and answer.
Can’t remember the exact words, but it was like, “Cliff, I can’t believe you did that! How could you have been so stupid?!”
And I know someone already mentioned the list of topics (that were perfectly lined up with Cliff’s life experiences) but I the ones I sort of remember were ‘Dog Bites’, ‘Overbearing Mothers’, and (in Alex’s familiar cadence), "And lastly, “Celibacy”.
“What’s up, Mr. Peterson?”
“My nipples. It’s cold as hell outside.”
“How are you today, Mr Peterson?”
“Poor.”
“Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.”
“No - pour!”
Woody: Back on the farm, we’d call a girl like that ‘ethereal.’
Another moment:
Woody: [awestruck] Wow, what was it like to be alive during the nineteen-sixties?
Frasier: [deadpan] I don’t know, Woody. I was too busy taming the west.
I loved hearing Frasier saying in his finely tuned voice, “Everybody have fun tonight! Everybody Wang Chung tonight!”
Wasn’t there an episode where Woody gets the drop on Sam over a raise? Woody got Sam so confused, at the end, instead of an $80 a month raise, Sam agreed to give Woody a $25 a week raise?
Then there was the time Frasier agreed to be a clown at a kids’ party, but didn’t know he was wearing a trick costume. Something he did would make his pants drop and he wasn’t wearing underwear.
How’s life treatin’ ya, Mr. Peterson?
Beats me…
…and kicks me…
…and leaves me for dead.
Oh yes, I totally forgot about Rene! I loved his episodes, when he’d try to trick Kelly into marrying him or whatever. The episode with the bet between him and Sam, about who could get the most girls, was also classic.
USA! USA! USA!
Hanover. When Kevin McHale comes into the bar he tells how Larry Bird always has funny stories about the dufuses in Hanover. He tells a story (I can’t remember for the life of me what it was), and Woody mumbles under his breath that he heard it a little differently. His version was about the dufuses in French Lick, Larry Bird’s hometown.
IIRC, it was something like:
McHale: “How many dufuses from Hanover does it take to change a light bulb?”
Sam: “How many?”
McHale: “None, because they have to drive all the way to French Lick just to get the lightbulb!”
Which reminds me of another great Hanover moment:
Fraiser: “Say Woody, there isn’t a chemical plant in Hanover by any chance, is there?”
Woody: “Yeah, they built it on top of the old landfill, right by the reservoir. How’d you know?”
Fraiser: “It just fits.”
Woody displayed a remarkable talent for picking football winners. He wanted to put his life savings of $1000 (he didn’t keep the money in his sock; he kept the map to where the money was buried in his sock) on a complicated and unlikely parlay. Sam said he would place the bet with a bookie, but figuring it for a sure loss, held back. When Woody’s ten-to-one hit, Sam offered a $100/month raise, but Woody “settled” for $30/week.
Favourite line of that episode:
Diane: Why don’t you call the bookie and tell him you honestly intended to place the bet?
Lilith: That damn bar.
In context, hilarious.
Actually, his name was Henri (which everyone pronounced as a Frenchly “on-REE”). And he was a riot when he teased Woody about Kelly.
Henri: “Do not worry, Woody, Kelly is always telling me how much she loves you. This morning it was so annoying I almost had to kick her out of the shower.”
Woody: “…you’re kidding, right?”
Henri: “But of course!”
Or, after Woody had a shave: “How does my face look?”
“As smooth as your girlfriend Kelly’s bottom!”
“…you’re kidding, right?”
“But of course!”
