Colbert And Cuse Nations Form International Pact To Defeat Godless Sun Devils

by Sean Keeley on Mar 21, 2009 4:55 PM EDT

Stephen Colbert stopped by Syracuse on Friday for two reasons. First, to discuss the weighty issues of the day with Rep. Dan Maffei (also pictured). Second, to pledge his undying support for the patriots of truth, the Syracuse Orange, in their quest for justice and American values as they take to the court tomorrow against the pagan Sun Devils of Arizona and their agenda of terror.

The truthiness hurts, ASU. You'll find that out tomorrow.

See you then. Til then, go Big East.

Actually, the interview was in Washington, DC

according to the caption on the photo:

Stephen Colbert, left, host of Comedy Central’s "The Colbert Report, " poses with Rep. Dan Maffei in Washington, D.C., as they both hold up a T-shirt commemorating Syracuse University’s six-overtime win over Connecticut in the 2009 Big East Tournament.

And as the wise Bernie Fine notes below, that looks more like a congressional office hallway than anything in Syracuse.

that hallway

certainly looks more like one of the congressional office buildings than an office building in syracuse.

I’ll take it – my shirt just came in the mail yesterday… I think I need to wear it tomorrow

I prefer John Stewart myself but Colbert is very entertaining and the fact that even though he only backed the Orange for a cheap pop, makes me like him more nonetheless.

No, Colbert interviewed him for “Better Know a District”, which means Colbert is probably gonna rip him apart and make him look stupid on national television.

Gotta love the Report
