This is pretty funny. Yes , people who are offended about GU, this is what Jimmy does and you're all going crazy while he has a huge laugh. I live in Washington and think it's great he's giving GU some attention. GO ZAGS!!
I went to the school. Everyone is book smart. Not the most intelligent when it comes to jokes and they are a pretty sensitive bunch imo. However it was a pretty good school
I enjoyed this. I’m a Canadian and I’ve been to Gonzaga and know a Gonzaga grad. It’s a gem in the US education system. It is okay to make fun of Gonzaga, they have nothing to be shy about.
Jimmy: You have just set up the perfect scenario to visit and host a show in Spokane, where Gonzaga allegedly exists. Your visit would be beyond hilarious!
I was just going to say the same thing. They could make it real funny, have Jimmy go around to some of the notable sites around Spokane looking for Gonzaga and then finally stumble upon it. Then do a live show from campus.
@@-HighTide I had to look it up myself. A Midsummer Night's Dream, Fairy queen/Titania and fairy king/Oberon. When I saw the name Oberon I thought of Game of Thrones, Oberyn Martell the Red Viper. He was the one who taunted the Mountain and then got a crushing headache.
Nah. Some people are just game and willing to help a comedian out by playing the straightman in the bit. I am glad that the citizens of Spokane were willing to help Kimmel with the setup for this joke. It was super funny even though the setup was complicated! Normally comedians like Conan are the ones who pull this off, so it's nice to see Kimmel giving it a shot! If he ever tried a long game bit that involves my town, I will definitely be willing to play the straightman for him.
Humor can be hard to understand when people have very different ideas about humor. Personally, I was waiting for a punchline for Kimmel's bit and it never dropped. I was left wondering if there was a point at all.
Well, I'm still waiting for the punchline. And being from Spokane WA, I was waiting for Kimmel to say something funny, instead of a monologue with no point. I was game for a joke, would have laughed. But he didn't make one. If he did, I must apologize for my lack of your humor, but he didn't say anything that a Carlin or a Williams would care about.
My friend is from Spokane, Washington and has friends who have went to or go to Gonzaga. I am gonna send this to him and I am sure he is gonna get a kick out of it.
It's Eastern Washington, they're a bunch of knuckle dragging Trump supporters...they don't have a sense of humor. Visit our state, just stay west of the Cascades
@@DimJongUn so your choices are the "knuckle draggers" in Eastern Washington, or judging by your comment, the smug condescending population on the west side. Seems best to just avoid Washington state.
I paid over $500,000 to get my son, Little Johnny into Gonzaga on a Curling scholarship so I can tell you, it's real. The Curling coach all ready cashed my check!
This is awesome to me because: my junior high (Washington Technical Magnet), 1st high school (Arlington Senior High School), 2nd high school (Minnesota Busuness Academy), and college (The Art Institutes International Minnesota) all no longer exist. Hahahahahaha! My grade school is still up and running. I doubt any of this is relevant to anyone, but in the off chance a show-staffer (or anyone else whom have lost all their educational institutions) reads this; I got a good natured + empathetic laugh out of this segment - thank you!
Well Mr. Kimmel, I live out here in the middle of the great state of Washington in the great Pacific Northwest rooting for Gonzaga and again go zags, let the games begin
This is a bit weird for me because i live in north italy. Why does it matter you ask? Well Gonzaga is an italian city founded before america was discovered so hearing "Gonzaga doesn't exist" (even if it is a different thing) sound really weird.
As someone who lives in Spokane I can confirm it exists but outside of March nobody really cares about it here we’re all focused on the biggest foot race and 3 on 3 basketball tournament
Don't forget the big foot race. Where we grab our pet big foots and force them to run across the track to see which one is faster. (Also, are you going to be participating in Hoopfest this year? I heard it's fun, so I'm thinking about it).
Citrustrack Citrustrack I did hoopfest throughout high school with some friends but not anymore I’ll only go for fun every other year. Riverfront park construction the past few summers has made events like that less exciting
Zz Mellow... no, we don’t exist. That’s why we need bits like this. If you all would just believe in us... we could finally be real! Seriously though, it’s a perfectly charming little city. But don’t tell anyone. If people knew how nice it was here, it would ruin it. If you have the means to cross plains of existence, do come visit.
We love Jesuit universities in our family. This Fordham alum married Sue, a Gonzaga alum. We Jesuit alums love each other and stick together across the USA! Go Zags, Go!!!
@@jimmipadge LOL - I have NEVER heard a fellow Canadian say "aboot" and I still haven't found this magical bagged milk we are supposed to have. Must be all the weed.
Lived in Spokane my entire life, and i can confirm Spokane exists, but has a serious Napoleon complex. We always want to be considered a big city, but we get mad when people criticise us or make fun of us. Learn to roll with the punches, Spokanities. Keep it classy, never trashy.
racoonsister buhahaha first of all something is in the water, the handford nuclear power plant leaks but the water flows to Portland haha wrong direction. Also Howard Shultz is from Seattle. You know all the crazy depressing liberals that live under a huge volcano.
Chase Newman huh? What? The Hanford nuclear power plants that leaked nuclear toxic waste into the Columbia river that flows all the way to Portland to the pacific ocean? Or Howard Shultz the owner of Starbucks that originated out of Seattle?
As a Spokanite, let me clear up the confusion! To an ordinary person, there is indeed no Gonzaga. However, for us elite few, walking on the grounds with an initiated person will allow us to be in on the secret. You must perform a ritual that involves a giraffe, 20 pounds of mozzarella cheese, and shaving cream. Then, and only then, will you be allowed to discover the reality of Gonzaga.
The Juggler. No, just North Idaho. And the Palouse. And the Greater Spokane area. All of Eastern Washington, actually. We don’t exist. atm. Check back later.
I was reading through everything to see if someone would say john Stockton to Malone was pretty famous. Saying hear in utah. Met them both a few times, nice guys.john went back to coach at Gonzaga when he left the jazz I think.
As someone who’s been to Gonzaga I can confirm it does not exist
Lmao love this joke about believing BS. half of America is soooo good at it
I also have reason to believe Spokane isn’t real as well.
I live in Spokane and I'm not sure it exists.

Stephanie Goodman it’s not exactly the biggest school, attendance wise or campus size wise. It’s also a private school
At least I just learned where it's located, thanks Jimmy!
I thought gonzaga was another name for bigfoot or something
Prosser is a mid state city in Washington.
Team name of Spokane Community College is Sasquatch.
Gonzaga is named after a Catholic Jesuit, since its catholic
And Jesuit.
Isn't John Stockton from Gonzaga?! I thought Jimmy knew his NBA history :o

yup
