Towards the end of Duck Soup, in the battle scene, Chico does a routine trying to pick someone to go for help (sort of like "One Potato, Two Potato".) Does anyone know how this went?

Thanks,

Dave

Here is Chico's counting game, as transcribed in the "release dialogue script" for Duck Soup. I
wonder if this segment was scripted or if it was
merely transcribed by some Paramount secretary in
1933.

Chicolini: Wait, I got it! Rrrrrrinspot, vonza,
twoza, zig-zag-zav. Popti, vinaga, tin-li-tav.
Harem, scarem, merchan tarem. Tier, Tore -

[Chicolini is counted out.]

I did it wrong. Wait, wait, wait! I start here.
Rrrrrrrinspot, vonza, twoza, zig-zag-zav. Popti,
vinaga, tin-li-tav. Harem, scarem, merchan tarem.
Tier, tore -

[Chicolini is counted out again.]

Oh, I got it! I got it! Rrrrrrrinspot, buck!

[He counts out Pinky.]

I'm guessing that was actually a kid's game. I recall
there is an episode of Seinfeld where Kramer plays
this game.
