Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })"Gone Batty" is a 1954 Looney Tunes cartoon by Robert McKimson which follows up his 1947 cartoon Hobo Bobo.It's the Baseball Championship between the heavily favored surly and husky Greenville Goons, and the smaller and meek Sweetwater Shnooks. The bigger Goons easily bully around the Shnooks both in and out of the game, knocking several of their players out of the game, and building a ridiculous 167-0 lead. All hope seems lost for the Shnooks.In a desperate move, the Shnooks' manager calls upon the team mascot Bobo, a small baby elephant to finish the game. Can Bobo pull off the win? | |

Animal Athlete Loophole | |
| Gone Batty / int_9d4f79e2 | comment |
Animal Athlete Loophole: The Goons protest Bobo playing the game for the Shnooks, but the Umpire says that there is no rule in the Baseball rulebook that says an elephant can't play. | |

Bowdlerization | |
| Gone Batty / int_a49914aa | comment |
Bowdlerization: An unusual cut occurs when this cartoon aired on a New York local TV station called WNEWnote now WNYW and the flagship station for the FOX network: The Schnooks' base runner, the Goons' catcher, and the umpire are arguing safe-versus-out. The catcher settles the question by clobbering the base runner with a bat (after lightly tapping him out with said bat). The umpire grimaces and says, "Yeesh, NOW he's out!" On WNEW airings, the umpire's line "Yeesh, NOW he's out" was muted, yet the actual violence was left intact and the line can still be deciphered by those who can lip-read (whether or not they're deaf) or, at the very least, knows the punchline to that joke. | |

Big "SHUT UP!": The Goons protest Bobo being put in the game, while the Umpire checks the rule book. As they keep talking, he ends up shouting, "QUIET!" | |

Artistic License – Sports: The game should've been called after the first inning, but there is apparently no mercy rule. | |
