We've got the first Goofy Gopher cartoon here. The Goofy Gophers were a pair of exceedingly polite rodents who would get into all sorts of trouble, and use their own wits to humorous resolutions. Warner Brothers animator Robert Clampett first invented the Gophers in the 1947 film The Goofy Gophers. There is a lot of speculation that Clampett invented the gophers as a spoof to Disney's Chip 'n Dale characters, however, there are some interesting differences between the two. With the Disney Chip 'n Dale cartoons, the two scheming chipmunks would bicker amongst themselves even as they continued to antagonize Donald Duck, or Pluto. The Goofy Gophers, however, were exceedingly polite to each other and would never get into any disagreement. Whatever the speculation, Clampett did give us a couple of fun rodents to laugh with in their debut cartoon. From YouTube:
Indubitably!
