Who for years seemed his whole goal in life was to get Harvey Korman laughing on stage.

Which he accomplished with great regularity.Tim Conway was the only person who could keep a straight face when Tim Conway was in the room.

One of my favorite stories is when he went to a costume party dressed as a mummy. Polaroid cameras were somewhat new and popular and he got a photo of himself.  He noticed the face size was about right so he cut it out of the photo, cut a slit in the laminate on his drivers license and inserted the mummy photo. 

On the way home he purposely ran a stop sign knowing an officer was staking out that corner. When the officer stopped him, he asked to see ID. Tim handed him the modified license! The officer looked at the photo and at him and let him go!

My favorite Tim Conway scene is the Siamese Elephants Joke from the Carol Burnett show when Vicki Lawrence was playing Momma - before the spinoff.

The Siamese Elephants were not in the script and you can see Carol Burnett, Vicki Lawrence, and Dick Van Dyke surprised and trying not to fall apart laughing.

Vicki Lawrence explains why she ended the scene as shown above:
