Bud's 18th: Al's Strip Club Gift | Married with Children

Al surprises Bud with a trip to his favorite strip club for his 18th birthday. For Al, it is the ultimate father son bonding moment. For Bud, it is a dream come true. And for fans, it is one of the most famous rites of passage in Bundy history.

This clip comes from Married with Children Season 6 Episode 16, "Rites of Passage." While Peggy plans a birthday party for Bud's 18th, Al decides to take him to his favorite strip club instead.

Birthdays in the Bundy house are never about cake and candles. They are about scheming, dodging and surviving, and this one is no exception.

Moments like this are why Married with Children is still quoted today. The writing is sharp, the timing is perfect and the Bundys never try to be anything other than themselves.

Join the Bundy Club to relive scenes like this with fellow fans and David Faustino on our live Zooms. Bud is waiting.
