‘South Park’ Loves Penn, We Think

You know you’ve made it big when you get a cameo on South Park. And from the looks of this screenshot from last night’s season premiere, the Penn football team helmet has done just that! In a scene that spoofs ESPN’s Pardon the Interruption, the Penn name is displayed proudly next to an ESPN Etch-a-Sketch and behind that dude’s shoulder. We assume that first letter is a P, at least. Hollywood, here we come!

I think this is a nod to how Tony Kornheiser (that dude) is always name-dropping Penn since his kid went here. He really comes off as douchey when he does so also.

good find, but it’s probably because his son graduated from Penn last year.

Although, I have a sinking feeling that’s supposed to represent Penn State.

Penn State?

Kornheiser always has a Penn helmet behind him on PTI (or at least he did; I’m not sure since they redesigned the set last week), so it’s a reference to that.

Yeah Kornheiser’s kid went to Penn and he let’s everyone know about it. It has nothing to do with Penn State.
