Fudd may be a classic, but when it comes to Bug’s nemeses, I find Sam to be my favorite. Sam emerged as he would today in the Bugs Bunny short “Hare Trigger”. Though he is always remembered as a cowboy, he had many other roles from sultan, to general, to pirate, to alien. Nothing about this guy bugs me. Like the fact that Yosemite is in California and he sounds like a Texan. Perhaps my favorite thing is that before they named him, other names they considered were Wyoming Willie, Denver Dan, and Texas Tiny.
