It's why I'm worried about Conan taking over next year, I'm worried they'll do the same thing to him once he's runnin with the big dogs. Because that would be a real shame.
The pre-show warm up was fricken hillarious. Jay had 3 memebers of the audience come up and get a photo with him and he made good fun of each of them. The 17yr old guy from Iowa who is becoming a mechanic for a grain oil company got ripped the best. Joke after joke about oil, being a farm kid and then the guy's 14yr old girlfriend making him a year from going to jail. He even made fun of the kid's mom in her big IOWA t-shirt, saying how quickly she will make friends with the gang members of LA. It was a riot. He was able to poke fun of people without being rude or offensive and did so off the cuff while still in his regular denim clothes 15 minutes before the show actualy began. No wonder he just banks his Tonight Show check and live of the millions he makes doing his weekend stand-up in Vegas and at colleges.
