Don Rickles looking around the room, blessing Black people, telling them he loves them… then immediately going “as you’re laughing here, I’m sure one of you guys is up in my hotel room robbing me.”

Rowan & Martin just did the most brutal thing you can do to Don Rickles.

They stood up at his own roast and read his material without the delivery.
No screaming. No finger-pointing. No “anyway gang” energy. Just two guys calmly quoting every classic line back at him like… pic.twitter.com/81Li4qFQwp

Don Rickles walked onto Johnny Carson’s show and immediately turned Frank Sinatra into the punchline. 😂

What makes this moment so good isn't just the insults. Rickles spends the entire appearance roasting Sinatra with ridiculous mob jokes, then suddenly drops the act and tells… pic.twitter.com/P1OZcJqCqm
Don Rickles Roasts Denzel Washington and Dave

He proved it the second he sat down, looked at Dave, and said:

Then he turned to Denzel:

“I was never… pic.twitter.com/mO3cU8FQTB
Whenever I get a little down I just rewatch Don Rickles go after Robert De Niro like an assassin in the Casino outtakes. Scorsese laughing his ass off the entire time. Ego death. Beautiful. pic.twitter.com/AJlujKGbdy

She smiles and says they’re actually closer than that.
