This, this is funny.
At Wing Bowl today, Angelo Cataldi teased an EXCLUSIVE video of Chris Christie that would be played on the Wells Fargo Center’s giant ad server. I figured it was going to be a Joe Conklin bit. But nope. Genuine, legitimate video of fat man Chris Christie completely missing the landing zone of a WIP studio chair when he made an in-studio appearance last summer.
Christie was sort of a theme at Wing Bowl. A lookalike sat in a suite with a fake Jerry Jones and kissed him on the mouth when shown on-screen:
I’m guessing WIP, out of respect for Christie, planned to keep the video under wraps. [Seriously, if you have a Presidential candidate grace you with his presence, the least you can do is not intentionally embarass the guy.] But after Christie turned into Cowboys Superfan, all restraint went out the window (rightfully). It’s already paying off, too. The story is being linked to from Politco and Drudge:
The video is after the jump. Something tells me Christie won’t be appearing on the WIP Morning Show anymore.
If you can’t view it here, here’s a link to it on WIP’s Wing Bowl microsite.
