    "Senor Microphono es numero uno" - Translated in English: "Mr. Microphone is number one!"

    Like the British guy calling the tennis score "Love-30" as well.

    Believe it or not, there was a knock-off of Mr. Microphone. And I had it...

    I had no idea Mr. Microphone was Ronco.

    Didn't one of the Police Academy movies have a scene using one of these as a bug?

    Even has the infamous Mr. Microphone phrase: "Hey, good lookin' I'll be back to pick you up later!" said by a kid on a tricycle.

    My uncle worked for Ron Popiel for many years as an inventor and my cousin Jeff Gename was in a Mr. Microphone commercial as well as a Pocket Fisherman commercial. I never had one though... :(

    Why does Bernice say she wants Mr. Microphone for Christmas? She's got it in her hands.
