Considering that movie also involved corruption in New Jersey politics it seems like an easy way to tie in a joke.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are the hosts.

I have 'before the first nominations are read', in this pool.

A swig of the alcoholic beverage of your choice every time Christie or Bridgegate is mentioned.

I think one weak joke was said but didn't get much traction. None of the winners said a word. Christie was not a hot topic at all.

if this is a good thing or bad. We could look at it like Christie isn't really as important as the press indicates if he can't even get some jokes beside Fallon on a big night. Or Christie is going to completely survive this because it is a boring scandal. Not sure which.
