The “Steenking Baadges” Homepage

Well, everyone knows that in Mel Brook's Blazing Saddles, when the bad guys are signing up folks for their posse, the Mexican bandits knock the badges offered to them aside and say “Badges? We don' need no steenking badges!”. What many folks don't know (and something I personally have known for years) is that the line is a paraphrase of a line from John Houston's The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. I also knew that a mutation of the line appears in 'Weird Al' Yankovic's UHF: “Badgers? We don' need no steenking badgers!”. But I had NO IDEA this many folks had used the line over the years. The complete Stinking Badges Homepage is the definitive and absolute resource on the use of this line and all of it's varients. A great way to waste an hour or two...
