There is a
Late Night tradition that started with David Letterman and has continued up until today. When the Letterman left Late Night for The Late Show, his writers gave Conan O’Brien a pickle that had been in their care for some time. Then when Conan got The Tonight Show, he gave that pickle to Jimmy Fallon who was replacing him. Well now that Fallon is going to take over The Tonight Show, he handed off that huge fake pickle to Seth Meyers who got his job. What Meyers is going to do with it? We will just have to wait until February 24th to find out.
Let’s just hope he doesn’t find himself in the same pickle that Conan did 5 years ago. Ba da bump!
Finally, you can watch Jay Leno hand over the Tonight Show tradition (whatever it is) to Jimmy Fallon this Monday at 11:35p on NBC.
