  Who puts Sheldon Cooper as their laughs character?
  I had a few other characters lined up but then thought, nah who would it be fun to see in random scenarios...
  This has got to be one of the most random setups in this competition, Groucho and Sheldon trying to clean up a wild west town.... WTF
  For Groucho, there is precedent. Go West - a Marx Brothers film. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032536/
  Agreed Groucho's done this before. Still Sheldon is a Texan born and raised!..how much that'll help in actually trying to get the bandits out of town is a good question. He probably knows a lot about the Old West, maybe if he tried one of his constant analysis speech on them they'll run away or fall asleep in boredom? Not that I hate Sheldon mind you, I actually like his random tangents, but Groucho's probably can win on experience here.
  Sheldon in the earlier seasons was one of the funniest on the show. Yeah Sheldon probably passes out the first time someone shoots at him. Groucho wins.
  Good point about Sheldon being Texan, he can bring the people round to his side to win the match by pure logic! Of course, he then ends up insulting their inferior minds and they drive him out of town.
  I never did like the Big Bang Theory. From what I can gather, Sheldon gets annihilated
  My money's on Groucho.

  It's just that from what I've seen of The Big Bang Theory, I don't think he's capable of even winning this sort of thing given that he operates under sitcom logic.
  They could try to bring him around to that sort of funny again but it seems the writers are getting drained at this point even though the show keeps getting awards. i would have played off the Muppet cameo of Jim's when they had the chance but nope nothing like that as far as I saw.
  This is probably exactly how it'll go.Sheldon will mention Texas, he'll get a few on the bandwagon and then he'll start on something along the lines of their Western clothing probably not what they should be wearing according to such and such movie and so on.
  Yeah the problem is Sheldon doesn't like the Texas way if I remember correctly and it won't take long before he starts insulting people.
  He tries to distance himself from Texas mostly due to how he was treated by kids in the neighborhood and what he went through with his parents. Sheldon still did run back there when things looked to the worst for him but that was probably more a run to the sanctuary and somewhat sheltering protection he'd consider his mother would provide.
  He might even go far out and consider this as a means to be like Spock in a strange environment. That in itself is not going to help him any either.
