Hi all, So this has been driving me nuts: I’m sure I remember a classic Tex Avery cartoon that was somehow connected to Red Hot Riding Hood. But it wasn’t in RHRH… I just watched it again to be sure. There was a country wolf and also a city wolf. I think they went to the nightclub again and saw Red… I can’t find it. I didn’t imagine this!! What was it called? Somebody has to know… ---

Little Rural Riding Hood > **[Little Rural Riding Hood](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rural_Riding_Hood)** > > Little Rural Riding Hood is a 1949 MGM animated cartoon short subject directed by Tex Avery, conceived as a follow-up to his 1943 cartoon Red Hot Riding Hood. > In 1994, the cartoon was ranked in 23rd place of The 50 Greatest Cartoons.

At the farmhouse, a wolf (Pinto Colvig)\* reveals himself to the audience, but refuses to eat Red as he is supposed to, as he is in love with Red and wishes to kiss her. > > After a comical chase around the farmhouse, the wolf catches Red, and both prepare to kiss each other, when a telegram arrives for the wolf from his city cousin (Daws Butler), inviting him to the city to meet the city’s equivalent of Red (the same version seen in Red Hot Riding Hood). Enamoured by her photograph, the country wolf departs immediately for the city. - Most famous for being also the voice of the original Gooofy from Disney. ---

Hyuck- kissed a cow! Love it when the hick wolf grinds his car into the pavement and walks away on his ass cheeks. ---
