Tabasco Road is a 1957 Speedy Gonzales cartoon, part of the Looney Tunes series. It was an Academy Award nominee for best short subject but it lost out to Birds Anonymous a Merrie Melodies cartoon starring Tweety Bird and Sylvester, the latter of whom is also often paired with Speedy Gonzales). Both shorts were reissued as Blue Ribbon Merrie Melodies cartoons.
Plot[]
Speedy Gonzales must save his friends, Pablo and Fernando, from a large (and hungry!) alley cat. The trouble is, they are inebriated, and would much rather pick a fight with the cat (and for that matter, any other cat they can find!). Can Speedy save them?
