who was smoking the joint?


at the end of the football game the camera holds on one football player holding a joint - who was it?

reply

It's been a while since I've seen MASH but I believe that it was Ben Davidson who was burning the reefer. He was an actual pro who played for the Oakland Raiders in the '60's.

reply

Yep, he and Altman smoked a few J's before the scene.

reply

No it was Johnny Unitas smoking the joint. Davidson was # 88.

I beleive there's more than one use of MJ in the film - during the party for Trapper when he becomes Chief Surgeon I can swear there's a few joints being passed around. And you know what, I bet they were real.

Johnny Unitas
