Belushi snarls, "Hey bartender, hey man, lookie here/Draw one, draw two, draw three, four glasses of beer," as the horn section, arranged by James Brown alum Tom Malone, blasts away behind him.

In the decade before 1977, 12% of national organizations met or scheduled future meetings outside the U.S. That percentage has slipped slightly because of section 602 of the Tax Reform Act of 1976.
