OK, this scene has probably been done more than once, but it’s bugging me that I can’t remember what _ **I** _ saw it in.

There’s a brawl of some kind. It’s in a bar or tavern I _ **think** _, but that could be wrong. At one point a scruffy guy grabs the front of another guy’s shirt, grins, and breathes heavily into the guy’s face. Said person promptly passes out.

This film isn’t sent in contemporary times. It isn’t a recent release either. Why it’s bugging me so much, that I can’t recall what this was in, I don’t know. Sometimes I think I get close to knowing what it is, but it slips away.

I figure if anyone can help, Dopers can. If anyone wants to add their own “can’t recall” questions, that’s cool.

We’re pirates involved? Sounds like something out of Pirates of the Caribbean or Hook.

In Blazing Saddles, during the fight in the fake Rock Ridge. Gabby Johnson KO’ed an adversary in that manner.

[Found it.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kxt_-z8bTU&feature=relmfu) About 15 sec. in

That’s Blazing Saddles. Gabby Johnson grabs a guy during the big fight near the end, breathes on him, and he passes out. Having trouble finding the exact scene on Youtube, but that’s it.

Actually, here it is. Ignore the voices, skip to 1:49 of this video:

That’s it! As soon as I saw the name of the movie I knew it. God, I love the Dope!
