TON's Archfoe on "Beer Money"

During freshman year of high school a kid named Ilan tried to singe TON's ass with a bunsen burner. 15 years later TON refuses to forgive and forget and Ilan still tops TON's Kill List. Now Ilan has appeared on "Beer Money" the SNY show that asks people off the street 3 questions for $10, $20 and $100. The show is becoming a great place to see assholes and retards from Wagner High School.

Here's how Ilan's appearance went (I'll leave spaces after questions for those of you playing along at home.

Sporting a full beard and carrying a messenger's bag Ilan was stopped by host Chris Carlin in Columbus Circle. Ilan introduces himself with first and last name says he's from "New York" and a big fan of the New York Giants.

First question:
What local sports team goes by the nickname "Big Blue?"






Ilan quickly answers "New York Giants". Carlin says that was "the easiest ten bucks ever. Ever!" Then asks Ilan if he wants to risk it. Ilan says "why not?" Carlin says he has to risk it after that easy question and we move on to the --

Second question:
Who did the New York Giants play in their last home playoff game?






Ilan thinks for a while then says "it's been a while, two years ago, NFC, the Eagles."
Carlin emphatically says that is "incorrect," takes the $10 back and calls him ee-LON instead of EE-lon. Then Carlin reminds him that it was the Carolina Panthers. That jogs Ilan's memory somewhat as he says "that's right they got blown out like 41-0 or something like that."
Note: the score was 23-0 and I was there.
Carlin says it wasn't quite that bad, but they did get blown out."
Ilan replies "It was bad, it was bad."
Then Carlin says something that will warm TON's heart, "You know what else was bad? Your performance. That was bad."

So a satisfying appearance for TON, maybe not for Ilan, but I do have to answer "no" to the question TON asked me when I told him Ilan was on the show, "does he get punched in the face at the end of the segment?"

That's a little bit of karma, showing me some love.

Perhaps the next phase of karma payback will take it's form in a blown out tire at 75mph on the highway.
