there are so many, but for me it has to be when the flecks are getting ready to drive to the show, and gerry's friend is advising him on great places to stop on the way to philly...
"you can get a ham sandwich at Lee's Comeuppance"...
as in, Gen. Robt. E. Lee, of course...
it's a little hard to pick out, but i was on the floor when i heard that one...
Sherri at the snack bar:
"I'll have a large popcorn - half butter, half salt." [Exactly how would you do that?]
Also, not a funny line, but the whole gag about Gerry having two left feet. When I first saw that I couldn't believe they had actually done it. Too funny...

Pretty much anything fred willard said in that movie was gold. But i love it when he was talking about dressing up one of the dogs to look like Sherlock Holmes, Fred Willard is great in any Christopher Guest movie.
We are the musicmakers and we are the dreamers of dreams>Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory
I love it when Jerry and Cookie are at the dog show in the very begining and the extras are talking about what a beautiful day it is and one of the says..
"I woke up I was so glad!" so hilarious.
Also when the Flecks are having dinner at their friends house and Cookie says
"I know it taste better but it looks like schools hotplate food" or something of that nature! I love this movie so much!
So she would hear me in the other room, and she'd just start yelling. I'd say, 'Peanut. Hazelnut. Cashew nut. Macadamia nut.' That was the one that would send her into going crazy. She'd say, 'Would you stop naming nuts!'
-Imagining a young Harlan Pepper sitting in a room by himself yelling out nuts is so funny to me for some reason. What a nerdy little kid he must have been. And the fact that he remembers that and still thinks it's funny...wow.
Meg Swan: What are you a wizard? A genius? Why didn't you tell me that before?
-She's so great in this movie and in Waiting for Guffman. Makes me sad that the only thing I've seen her in lately are those Pepsi commercials with Jimmy Fallon.
And lastly, I'd have to agree that the pet shop owner was great in this movie. He delivers my favorite line: "But this is LEAST like a bee of the ones we have." It's funny because it's true.
John Michael Higgins says in a scene that was posted online before the movie was theatrically released (ironically the scene was not in the film!). In the scene he encounters an elderly straight laced man named Jack and I can only remember Higgins saying, a pair of jacks and then when Micheal McKean approach, Higgins continues and says a pair of queens beats a pair of jacks.
It was too funny.

I just watched this movie earlier in the car, and I hadn't seen it for a year or two. Man I was dieing of laughter. And just reading these posts had me laughing all over again. But the best one is,
Scott, to the meat counter guy: Hey, do me a favor: Get one of those pepperoni sticks out. I just wanna hold it.
LOL! I say that all the time when I am @ the store, to my sis and stuff to meat, and cookie dough, haha.
I also looove everything with Parker Posey and her husband, busy bee, the hotel room, everything haha.

Pepper Ann, Daria, and F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Rox!!
Another one I forgot:
"I have you down for a queen."
"What are you suggesting?"

Sorry if these have been mentioned:
-"There's nothing out there. (pause) At least not that I can see."
-"I thought you said they got a bigger place?"
-"They did".
-"Winky? Who's Winky?"
-"Hubert used to make a sound ... and it sounded like Macadamia Nut"
Also, the song Stefan sings to Tyrone.
"Your men are already dead..."
my favorite line

Too many great ones mentioned...
several more.
Hotel Manager:There's a petstore right downstairs...
MEg Swan: A petstore down the stairs?!?!?! (then wizard/genius line)
Buck: Here we have Judge Eddie Franklin...
Beckwith: Actually it's Edie...
Buck: What?
Beckwith: Edie Franklin...she's
Buck: Oh you're right that's a woman.
Buck: If you were an outfit like that in my neighborhood you better be a hotel doorman.
Guy at the party: Honey...honey guess what...when they get to Philadelphia they're going to see the place where they make the cream cheese...huh? that's what we've been talking about all these years!!!
Hamilton Swan: I remember what I was drinking when I met you. It was a grande espresso.
Meg Swan: That's right. And I thought that was really sexy.
Buck: Doctor, question that's always bothered me and a lot of people: Mayflower, combined with Philadelphia - a no-brainer, right? Cause this is where the Mayflower landed. Not so. It turns out Columbus actually set foot somewhere down in the West Indies. Little known fact.
Meg Swan: You know what? Just shut up.
too many great ones.
