Baseball player Yogi Berra had the best of them. His unintentional twistings of the English language known as a Yogi-ism are humorous beyond compare. For example:

"Thank you for making this day necessary."
"It ain't over 'till it's over."

And then there was one when he was talking to his wife about one of thier son's or something:

Yogi: Where have you been?

Carmen: I took Tim to see Dr. Zhivago.

Yogi: What the hell is wrong with him now?

His excuse: "Our game got rained out and I got home early. I was hungry."

I forgot about that one...

Then there was the one when they were having their window blinds fixed, only Yogi didn't know about it.

"Dad, they guy is here for the Venetian blinds."

"Look in my pants pocket and give him 5 bucks."
