Comedian Chevy Chase, known for his deadpan delivery of outrageous lines, didn't disappoint Tuesday as he accepted the "Man of the Year" award from Harvard University's Hasty Pudding Theatricals."Thank you very little," Chase said as members of the nation's oldest undergraduate theatrical group presented him with the traditional brass pudding pot.
"I love being here at a great place of higher learning with a great group of morons," he said later.
Chase, 49, was a member of the original "Saturday Night Live" television cast in the 1970s, where he became known for his pratfalls impersonating then-President Ford and for the line "I'm Chevy Chase, and you're not."
