Peyton Manning among celebrities in David Letterman’s final Top Ten
Hey, you may have heard that David Letterman is retiring! It’s true! And unlike Brett Favre, he’s probably going to stay retired! On Wednesday night, Letterman aired his final show, a well-earned farewell after decades of hilarity and absurdity. As part of the shenanigans, he invited an all-star panel of guests to offer up the final Top Ten list: “Top Ten Things I’ve Always Wanted To Say To Dave.”
Among that august group were Chris Rock, Tina Fey, Steve Martin, Jerry Seinfeld … and one Peyton Manning, who stepped onto the stage sporting Broncos colors and that forehead of his. Manning’s joke was solid, though it didn’t compare to the drop-the-mic hammer Julia Louis-Dreyfus threw down right before him. Poor Peyton. At least it wasn’t Eli stealing his thunder this time.
Nice work, Peyton, and farewell Dave.
