It makes sense only if you watched this tv series: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inspector_Gadget :)

Remember that old show "Inspector Gadget." Well he would say "Go Go Gadget" before any action that he would do. i.e. "Go Go Gadget Run." Get it? It is not as funny as the number of sales joke though.

I used to love that cartoon, but still didn't get it. I thought the comment was a clue as to why it is funny.

Doesn't do it for me I'm afraid :-)

Because each time he does "Go Go Gadget", it never works and someone has to fix it.
