| 0:00.0 | Popcorn. Get your popcorn here. Who wants popcorn? Word of the day. Thursday, May 27, |
| 0:27.7 | 2021. Popcorn is the word of the day. I haven't used that yet. I didn't realize that popcorn could |
| 0:33.5 | ever be a projectile. When you run a stadium or an arena, you know, when you get out of the water |
| 0:41.2 | and they take the cap off because they're afraid you're going to throw the cap onto the court. |
| 0:45.6 | And so you put the open water down in between your feet and then if you stand up and cheer, |
| 0:53.1 | which we may not remember how to do, but now that we're going back to games, you stand up and cheer |
| 0:56.7 | and then the water spills, you go to the concession stand and you ask for the beer. And if it doesn't |
| 1:03.0 | come in a cup, but you want to bottle a beer, they open it and keep it. Everyone's worried. I |

| 1:44.6 | Last night, there was an NBA playoff game in Philadelphia. Let me tell you something about Philadelphia. |
| 1:51.2 | I watched so many games in Philadelphia, Marlon's Philly's, Exposed Philly's, the old stadium, |
| 1:59.5 | the new citizens bank. I love Philly. I do. I love the passion with the fans, but there's |
| 2:07.8 | something as a New Yorker with Philly and with Boston that I grew up thinking New York fans were |
| 2:16.2 | the greatest and Philly and Boston fans were horrid. Boston fans were racist. Philly fans were rude |
| 2:25.3 | and insane. I had some experiences with some Philly fans. Some stories that I've told on this show. |
| 2:31.8 | I told the story about the elevator where I was with my child and someone was talking about what an |
