Colbert: Super Tuesday Like The Super Bowl Except One Team Destroys Itself

Stephen Colbert

Stephen Colbert was psyched on Super Tuesday. “It is like the Super Bowl of politics, if the Super Bowl was one team slowly destroying itself.”

To celebrate the occasion, Colbert painted his face with the team’s colors: white. And no game day is complete without a tailgating menu. Colbert served a 10-layer dip, one layer for each Super Tuesday state, including Vermont cheddar and Ohio rust. He also made margaritas, but forgot his blender. Luckily he had a transvaginal ultrasound probe laying around.

“Usually at my parties, this thing doesn’t come out until after the margaritas,” Colbert said.
