So, how many puppeteers were in the Bus during the Night Time sequence? Not counting the stunt driver in the full Pops suit or the two controlling Fozzie and Gonzo's heads from another car.

Good question, sadly I can not answer it. I am expecting, like what they did with TMM, that there were little people in the back driving the bus, though did you say Pop had a stunt double? I did not notice that. As for the puppeteers, there were probably far too many to count, I expect anywhere from ten through twenty.

Yeah, Pops was just a suit, like Beauregard was in the Taxi scene.
