If you watched TV in the 1980s you might remember The Unknown Comic, who initially appeared as a contestant on The Gong Show, but later could be seen in various late night TV venues, as well as on the stand-up circuit. As well as I can remember, he had a grating voice, and performed wearing a slightly too-small sport jacket fastened with a safety pin where the button should be, and a paper bag over his head. The Bania character on Seinfeld reminds me of him, to the point that I’m wondering if it could be him.
Does anyone else here remember him, or know what became of him?
