Title: OT: Cornell basketball mention
Post by: atb9 on March 17, 2004, 11:33:27 PM
I always love seeing Cornell being mentioned on TV--the school often times takes a back seat to the bigger name Ivy schools...

Jon Stewart mentioned at the end of the Daily Show that last year he lost his NCAA basketball tournament pool by picking Cornell to win the tournament.  He said he was going to pick them to win again this year...  :-P

I just saw it too.  I jumped out of my seat.  It has been my hope in life that Jon Stewart knew Cornell existed.  Now that it is confirmed I can have a happy spring break.  
The random Cornell mention really got me excited though.  A little like in Bowling for Columbine where they showed the Ivy School street signs and Cornell was the first one.  Nice to know that we are thought of outside of Ithaca.

He came to Cornell a few years ago...he was hilarious and made fun of the one lane roads in and out of Ithaca (but then again, who hasn't??  :-P)!

You mean your hope in life didn't somehow revolve around Cornell hockey?  Shame on you! :-P
