Ahead of Monday night’s Simpsons Funday Football broadcast, ESPN NFL analyst Mina Kimes pranked fellow analyst Dan Orlovsky with a Bart Simpson-inspired pun for the ages.
Paying homage to Bart’s prank calls to Moe’s Tavern, Kimes asked Orlovsky about a player on the upcoming game roster named “Hugh Jass.”
Hugh Jass? Get it? Orlovsky didn’t at first, as he fell hook, line and sinker for Kimes’ Simpsons-ready prank.
We like to think Bart was somewhere laughing in the background as Kimes executed this prank to absolute perfection.
As for Orlovsky, cowabunga, dude. You might want to brush up on your Simpsons episodes!
Tbh this is one of the proudest moments of my career @danorlovsky7 @LauraRutledge
