Daily Show's Jordan Klepper Trolls Ohio/OSU

Submitted by MGoVillain on

At the end of a feature last night, Daily Show's Jordan Klepper snuck in a nice little troll of OSU after calling people from Ohio "dicks" because they're from Ohio, but also because they apparently have their panties in a twist over some native Alaskans wanting to change Mt. McKinley, named after an unimportant president from Ohio, back to its native name, Denali. 

As the segment wraps up, Klepper tells Ohioianians to stop being dicks and plants a totally randomly colored flag in the ground on Mt. McKinley. 

EDIT: Here's a link to the clip: http://thedailyshow.cc.com/videos/vbp8i5/living-in-denali

Saw it. Loved it. I didn't even catch the color of the flag at the end. My girlfriend pointed it out to me. Looks to be covering up some kind of red flag as well. I'm sure that was also intentional.

Back when he was working for BTN's show 'Friday Night Tailgate' Jordan made it pretty clear that he grew up as a Michigan fan. I think hes from the Kalamazoo area.

In the absence of mountains, we could always substitute...say...landfills, carefully sculpted municipal dumps with some majestic piles of solid waste. There are definitely ways to give the people of Ohio what they want in this regards. I can see thousands flocking to see the newly rechristened McKinley Landfill And Recycling Center near McKinley's hometown of Niles, for example.

but to Ohio's complaints I can only wonder "Who asked your opinion?". It's Alaska's mountain. They can name it "Mount F*ck Ohio" as far as I'm concerned

That's a noble jesture but there are no state taxes in Alaska.  Cost of Living is crazy high but no taxes is a bonus for those of us who already live here!

All of us here in Alaska call in Denali.  The Ohio representatives have been blocking the name change for years.

We're supposed to suspend disbelief and and go along with...

1. Somebody in Ohio knows McKinley was from Ohio?

2. Somebody in Ohio knows McKinley was a President?

3. Somebody in Ohio knows there is a mountain in Alaska?

Let's face it.  Ohio is that flat wasteland between Pittsburgh and Ann Arbor.

Country knows is cheating? Ohio. What is the last college program that won a FB Championship that people respected? That means more to me than just a W. I have my answer. Win with integrity. Does the NCAA support or selectivity support?

This was actually last week. The only reason I point this out is in pissed that the daily show is taking two weeks off (my two week shutdown) before finishing off Jon's run in early August.
