Which Came First?

[D'Snowth]

Bugs Bunny playing the Hungarian Rhapsody in concert and a mouse is trying to crash it, or Tom and Jerry doing it?

 

[Kimp the Shrimp]

"Rabbit Rhapsody (1946)" Bugs Bunny played the tune Within weeks, MGM released Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera's Tom and Jerry short, The Cat Concerto, featuring an almost identical plot, and the same Hungarian Rhapsody, being played by Tom the cat this time.

but Disney put out "Farmyard Symphony (1938)" using Hungarian Rhapsody

Speaking of Bugs Bunny, I think Porky Pig was created before Bugs, but Bugs became such a popular character the animators used him more and Bugs became the spokes person for the Looney Tunes and Warner Bros. studio.

Same thing applies about Rowlf the dog being created before Kermit the frog and kermit becoming the mascot for the muppets.
