Stephen Colbert, the host of The Late Show on CBS, has a funny sketch that pokes fun of legal marijuana in Illinois.

I've been waiting patiently for this to happen. Unfortunately, with the holidays most of the "Late Night" and "Comedy Shows" have been playing reruns, so it took a little bit longer than expected. Finally. the state of Illinois is being made fun of nationally for its love of weed. Bravo to Stephen Colbert for the hilarious sketch.

Check it out for yourself.

"With Chicago accents as thick as their deep-dish kush, “Fat Al” and “South Side Donnie” (played by Second City alumni Brian Stack and Joe Liss) made a strong sales pitch in the 80-second sketch that opened Tuesday’s episode of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

I think the legalization of recreational marijuana is a good thing for our state, but I do understand how funny it did become with this big frenzy with huge lines.
