Thumb Fun is a 1952 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes short directed by Robert McKimson. The cartoon was released on March 1, 1952, and stars Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.

Plot

Daffy decides to hitchhike south but struggles to catch a ride. He tricks Porky into giving him a lift by painting a fake hole in the road. Along the way, they encounter a menacing driver, leading Daffy to comically grovel to avoid confrontation. Daffy's reckless driving gets them into trouble with the law, resulting in a fine. Despite Porky's warnings, Daffy's antics lead to another hefty fine. Fed up, Porky seeks revenge by tricking Daffy into launching himself with his own luggage. Later, Porky gifts Daffy a hitchhiker's thumb, which Daffy naively uses in vain. The cartoon ends with Daffy nursing his bruised thumb, a victim of his own folly.
