In the 90’s the late night battles were hot, heavy, and often mean spirited. Whether you were a David Letterman or Jay Leno fan, you have to admit the late night war was never better than it is today. Tonight Anthony Rizzo, Dexter Fowler, and Ben Zobrist will appear on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and Kris Bryant will be on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
True to form, for both Rizzo and late night TV, Anthony took to Twitter to poll his followers on who would be the funnier guests, the trio of Cubs on The Tonight Show, or Bryant on Jimmy Kimmel Live! That is when the hilarity ensued.
@DexterFowler @benzobrist18 and I are going head to head with @KrisBryant_23 on @JimmyKimmelLive tonight. Who will be the funnier guests?
