Chris Rock is going to have a lot of explaining to do after his opening monologue on Saturday Night Live! last night.
The 49-year-old comedian hosted the famous show yesterday, on the day after Halloween, bringing up a few “scary” topics and offending a lot of people in the process.
With the NYC marathon happening this weekend, Chris joked about the Boston bombings that occurred at the Boston marathon over a year ago.
He told the crowd:
“That Boston Marathon was scary, because I love Boston,” SNL alum Rock began. “I love the people there, but that was probably the most frightening, sadistic terrorist attack ever. Just think about it — 26 miles! People jogging for 26 miles, their knees are hurting, their feet are killing them, if you’re a woman, there’s blood coming out your titties. You’ve been training for a year, you finally get to the finish line, and somebody yells, ‘RUN!'”
He also joked about the new Freedom Tower in Manhattan, bringing up the terrorist attacks that occurred in 2001 in the former Twin Towers.
“They should change the name from the Freedom Tower to the ‘Never Going in There Tower,’ ’cause I’m never going in there,” he quipped. “Who’s the corporate sponsor, Target? They put another skyscraper in the same spot? I am never going in the Freedom Tower. I got robbed on 48th and 8th a few years ago, I have not been back to 48th and 8th.”
