Nick Kroll and John Daly mock the Philly/Pittsburgh rivalry.
Two of my favorite comic actors right now, Nick Kroll (The League, Cavemen) and John Daly ("Abracadabralifornia") mock/accurately depict the Philadelphia/Pittsburgh rivalry (and reality shows) in the latest episode of Kroll Show. This sketch features: Philly references, Philly accents, vintage Philly Mags and Pittsburgh references I don't get but surely must be real. According to this interview, many of the show's writers hail from Pennsylvania, including the Philly area's own Christine Nangle. Watch the whole episode here, jagoffs.
