The performance of "Who's on First?" in The Naughty Nineties (1945) is considered the quintessential version of the routine, and the clip is enshrined in a looped video at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY. If you listen carefully you can hear laughter in the background. It was the crew, whom the director could not get to stop laughing during repeated takes of the routine. He finally gave up, shot the scene in one take and let the laughter stay in, hoping no one would notice it.

1943

In November 1943 his only son, Lou Costello Jr., drowned in the swimming pool of the family home just days before his first birthday. Lou never got over it, blaming his wife--who was home at the time and didn't see the boy wander out into the back yard and fall into the pool--for the tragedy. Although they didn't divorce--they were both Catholics, for whom divorce at the time was unthinkable--it put a permanent damper on their marriage.
