      That's who I would have said.

      I believe he was also on several episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm and this pic looks like a screenshot from the episode where Larry has an arguement with him over the tickets while attending a Dodgers game.

        He also had his own show on Showtime or HBO or something. It's always end with one of his stunts going horribly wrong, and him being hurt (though not really).

            Super Dave is who popped in my head. I use to watch him all the time, I 99% sure it was Showtime.

            Stormbringer: Larry from David Letterman? Don't remember him at a Dodgers game. Then again I can't really recall him NOT in his white, red, blue jumpsuit.

              Looks like Bob Einstein (Super Dave Osborne). His brother is Albert Brooks.

                    Ric,
                    I'm confused

                    Someone else mentioned Letterman. My reference to "Larry" was Larry David from Curb You Enthuisiasm. I remember them at a Dodger's game and something about tickets and his dead brother.

                      Ahhh ha!

                      Found it. Season 4 The Car Pool Lane

                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...siasm_episodes

                      Larry uses an innovative way to use the HOV lane while driving to a Los Angeles Dodgers game; Larry attempts to get medicinal marijuana for his father; Marty Funkhouser (Super Dave) is reluctant to give his dead father's seat up (at the Dodgers Game).

                      I added what's in the parenthesis for clarification

                      The absolute funniest episode of Curb....I have ever seen. Perhaps the funniest 30min show EVER imho.

                        Didn't mean to confuse you. I knew he was on David Letterman (as someone else mentioned), and Larry Melman (of David Letterman fame) was the only Larry I could think of. Thought maybe they did a skit together. Never saw Curb Your Enthusiasm, not sure I even heard of it before, therefore no clue on character names.

                        After following your link I see why I never heard of it, don't / didn't get HBO.
