Tim and Shane riff on fans sleeping outside SNL, question the show's current cultural relevance, and go on a tangent about seeing OJ Simpson or Bin Laden in public and how people romanticize them.
- Tim walks past SNL fans sleeping outside in sleeping bags with SNL snow hats, wondering what's wrong with them.
- SNL only works because one or two people there are funny, yet the show has fervent fans despite its current mediocrity.
- Tim is amazed people sleep on the street to see anything, let alone SNL without a major celebrity draw like Taylor Swift.
- A group of ladies camping outside SNL got angry and gave Tim the finger when he walked past them.
- Tim uses bin Laden as an example: if he saw him in a restaurant after 9/11, he'd simply acknowledge it's bin Laden, not get angry about it.
