Conan's getting 45 million to walk away and he's taking some parting shots at NBC and Leno. Leaving has actually made him funny

it's quite funny.

Sitting at the dealer right now, and just overheard a salesman talking to someone else about that bit:

"Yeah, it's the most expensive car in the world, like $10 million or something. They make 3 a year or something low like that."





At least he isn't a Bugatti dealer. I should ask him about RX-8s.

Not real, they just borrowed it from a museum.

Funny concept though.

No **** Sherlock. They also played the original recording of Satisfaction which costs big bucks to get the rights for. Factored into the cost was assuming NBC would host it on the internet as well but they have cut it out of their online streams.

Holy hostility, Batman!

I'd imagine NBC has rights to play that song for whatever reason. Considering everything else was fake, I can't imagine there was anything that was OMGWTFBBQ expensive.

We'll never know, though.....
