Ok we all know the famous quote from Walker Texas Ranger, but...... why was it said and why did Chuck Norris have a huge smile on his face after the kid said it? What context was it said in? What's the story on it? I've been so curious for the longest time.

Being taken out of context, mostly. It's such a horrible, shocking thing to go from "Walker calls me Little Indian!" to "I have AIDS." Added to the context of it's revival as a comedic moment was immediately cutting back to Conan's own stunned, trying-not-to-laugh, walking away from the desk reaction.

THEN WHY THE HECK DO PEOPLE LAUGH AT THAT? (lol, oops, i'm going to hell, but seriously!) They laugh at it because Conan O'Brien and his very funny writers used this and other ridiculous clips of that show as part of the Walker: Texas Ranger lever on Late Night With Conan O'Brien back when Conan was in the 12:30 slot. The Walker show is already absurd, but when you show just the most over-the-top scene in the episode without any context or setup, it becomes totally ridiculous. And hilariously funny. Conan is apparently using the lever on his ongoing live tour:
