no, seriously, impressions

I took the bus home from a doctor's appointment today, and thirty seconds after I got on the bus the driver started doing impressions. Seriously. For fifteen minutes.
And he started ... with Barney. No really. He sang the "I love you" song. Twice. And then he did some hanging-with-Barney's-friends shtick, I assume all from the source text.
After he finished with Barney, he moved on to Goofy, perhaps from the mid-90s Goof Troop? And then he skipped back a couple decades to do Bullwinkle for a while.
And I have no idea why he started doing it. There was a woman with a baby sitting up at the front of the bus, but they weren't talking to the bus driver. And as if that baby even knew who Barney was! And anyway, Barney.
Let me just say, everyone else on the bus shared my expression of complete WTF.
