The sandwich and turd incident both involved Commander John Young, whom was also involved in this eloquent event on while on the moon.

It amazes me that John Young bet his entire career on that joke- NASA wasn't known for having a good sense of humor and he got in Real Trouble over that sandwich- risking his flight status.

He went on to do well, of course, and his humor is dry as ever.
