Remember the beloved fartist from the late 1800's or early 1900's? The one who I believe performed under the name La Petomaine?
Well, I came across a recent quick article on his career that indicated that his hysterical stage shows ended due to changing tastes, with his musical mimicry with backdoor gas losing it's sweet fragrance with audiences.
However, before this mention, every other version of the story related that La Petomaine lost control of his special sphincter and let out a very public "brown note" of his own at the conclusion of a show, which was his final performance - drop the mic, literally.
I'm thinking now that the accident version of the story must just be an urban legend based on the obvious joke about what would happen if you tried to squeeze wind out of your backside day in and day out to the adulation of the crowds. Does anybody know for sure what facts ended the aromatic reign of the Fartist?
