Foghorn Leghorn
Foghorn Leghorn is an anthropomorphic rooster appearing in Warner Bros. cartoons.
Origin[]
Foghorn Leghorn was directly inspired by the popular character Senator Claghorn, a blustery Southern politician played by Kenny Delmar who was a regular character in The Fred Allen Show, a popular radio show of the 1940s. The rooster adopted many of Claghorn's catchphrases, such as "That's a joke, I say, that's a joke, son." Delmar had based the character of Claghorn upon a Texas rancher who was fond of saying this.[3]
A “Leghorn” is a breed of chicken (since it was an Italian breed that makes him Italian-American), and “Foghorn” describes the character's loud, overbearing voice. At its most raucous, it sounds similar to that of another Blanc voice: Yosemite Sam (an almost exclusive Friz Freleng character). Both parts of the name suggest the association with "Senator Claghorn." According to Leonard Maltin, the character's voice was also patterned after a hard-of-hearing West Coast-only radio character from the 1930s, known simply as The Sheriff, in a radio program called Blue Monday Jamboree.[4]
Foghorn debuted on August 31, 1946 in the Henery Hawk short Walky Talky Hawky.
