9-1-1 Is a Joke In Your Town


Following in the footsteps of Jeff Foxworthy, Pamela Anderson, and William Shatner was Flavor Flav who was roasted on Comedy Central recently. The roasters included Greg Giraldo, Carrot Top, Patton Oswalt, Jeff Ross, Jimmy Kimmel, and was hosted by Katt Williams. Snoop Dog, Ice T, and Brigitte Nielson also roasted Flav.

You need to check Comedy Central and TIVO this the next time it airs. It is hysterical. Some of the highlights include:

Greg Giraldo telling Ice T that he is a fossil and that he is so old that the first thing he bought with his record deal money was his freedom.

Ice T telling Oswalt, Ross, and Kimmel that if it wasn't for fat white guys like them, he would have been a broke pimp.

Lisa Lampanelli telling Flavor Flav that if he were any smaller and darker, Brad and Angelina would try to adopt him.

Jeffrey Ross wondered how you embarrass a crackhead who wears a Viking helmet. How you roast charcoal. And said that starving kids in Africa send Flavor Flav 50 cents a day.

The bar behind the roasters was serving drinks and it appeared that Jimmy Kimmel, Patten Oswalt, and Snoop had a few too many before it was their time to speak.

Kimmel got the loudest reaction from the crowd when, after naming all of Flav's children, said that he was responsible for more homeless, black kids than Hurricane Katrina. Worse yet, followed that up with this beauty (at around 4:25 in the clip):
