"The Three Old Men" Antonio, Carlos and Jobim

Antonio, Carlos and Jobim (Born ??) are three old men who travel throughout the Solar System and continually encounter Spike and the Bebop crew, although despite these encounters neither group notice such happenstance.

Their main gag is that after a game or conversation one begins to claim to have dug the Astral Gate/lakes/farms/etc. to which the others reply to have all helped in such endeavor.

The three are named after Brazilian songwriter and musician, Antonio Carlos Jobim.
