More stealth/fiction vandalism from SamuraiClinton, near as I can tell. "Official title" gets zero hits, and other combinations just get hits for the NYC Friar's club roast of CC. A visit to the Comedy Central 'TV shows' page didn't provide any confirmation of any of the names mentioned. Niteowlneils 00:40, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. This actually is a TV show, go to IMDb.com and type in "club roast", and look for a result that says "Chevy Chase" and it will prove you that it actually exists. --GoofyGuy 03:41, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Err, no, it's a TV special, and it wasn't hosted by Chase, he's the one who got roasted. I don't think the name of the show is actually Club Roast, either, since it's the Friar's Club where these things usually take place. If anything is determined to be salvagable, Merge into roast, where there's already a little bit of info on events of this type; otherwise, Delete. android↔talk 05:04, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)
- I also failed to find the show alleged by SamuraiClinton using those directions. Delete as unverifiable. Rossami (talk) 05:07, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Hoax. Warn both Users that they will be blocked if they continue to post hoaxes like this. The IMDb article returned is for "New York Friar's Club Roast". Entirely different thing. RickK 05:38, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Just so you know, there's only one problematic user here; User:SamuraiClinton signs his VfD posts as GoofyGuy. android↔talk 05:41, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as hoax. Radiant_* 19:30, Mar 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Patently a hoax. We should also consider imposing a ban on SamuraiClinton. Binadot 02:27, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- I am sorry for making a bogus contribution, I have the best intentions for Wikipedia, and sometimes my contributions for Wikipedia have a VfD, and that shouldn't spark any suspicion on me, so just delete club roast since I found out about the bogusness of it. --TheSamurai 00:49, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Since even the creator calls it "bogusness". Jonathunder 05:27, 2005 Mar 23 (UTC)
