Weekend Diversion: Synchronized Swimming
All this talk of 2016 had us thinking: if/when we get the Olympics, what sports will we go see? Sure, there's basketball and track & field. But what about the smaller sports? Handball! Field Hockey! Badminton! We're so in. And then one thought led to another and here we are thinking of synchronized swimming and what is probably the most underrated Saturday Night Live skit of all time (NBC doesn't even have an official clip of it in their SNL Archives) featuring Harry Shearer, Martin Short, and Christopher Guest (who shows us where he got inspiration for his character in the 1997 film Waiting For Guffman).
Thanks, Laura!
