Archived newspapers describe this special as Jack's objective to illustrate that "the truth is not only stranger than fiction and is far funnier." This is a humor-filled potpourri of oddball incidents collected on film from
around the world. Among the ingredients is a segment on football fumbles and unplanned plays that create gridiron chaos. Like Allan Funt, Paar also made sure to include a segment on youngsters who are playing "games" with us
oldsters and a truly wacky bit on inventions. The droll Paar wit also settles on news and politics with politicians getting their share of his jibes.
