Synopsis
In medieval times, for the horrendous act of tossing a half-eaten carrot into a suit of armor, Bugs Bunny is challenged to a duel by the Black Knight (Sir Pantsalot of Dropseat Manor). What follows is a series of jousting tournament gags. The jousting arena is like a football stadium, complete with radio announcers and program vendors. Bugs puts a little "English" (poolroom chalk) on his lance. The knight uses a mace and chain, which Bugs repels with a spring. The knight chops at Bugs' armor with an axe, but Bugs creates his own super armor, and they charge each other head-on...

Knights Must Fall
NEVER mentioned in serious discussions of the all-time great Bugs Bunny cartoons. This one's stuck with me since childhood.
