I finally found out what Einstein was talking about.
When he names Smokey and the Bandit 3 in the game everyone is playing with the two Station guys. He follows it up with Smokey IS the Bandit. I found out, the original premise of Smokey and the Bandit 3 involved Jackie Gleason playing both Smokey and the Bandit. It was filmed, tested, then refilmed with Jerry Reed playing the Bandit part this time.
That was a weird bit of trivia.
