For those of you that don't know, the 1981 film Stripes, which starred Bill Murray, Harold Ramos and John Candy, was originally written for Cheech and Chong. This is why the film has a Cheech and Chong vibe to it.
During Tuesday's interview with Howard Stern, Howard asked Murray if he knew it was written for Cheech and Chong.
“Turns out that Cheech and Chong's agent didn't want them to do it,” Murray revealed. “Cheech and Chong never even saw the script. I think if they'd seen the script, they could have fun with it. There were plenty of crazy, stoner scenes in it. There was a whole scene where we go to South America and we eat some potion and everyone has a psychedelic experience and totally gibberish, you know, yeah, but so that stuff was there in the original script."
