A comedian turned Anthony Edwards' hilarious Charles Barkley retort into Minnesota tourism propaganda
This is one way to put on for your home state.
The Minnesota Timberwolves’ run to the conference finals, and potentially further, is bringing Charles Barkley back to the North Star State for the first time in two decades.
One native Minnesotan is doing his part to make sure Barkley isn’t the only one to make the trip up north.
After the Wolves’ Game 7 win over the Nuggets Sunday, Barkley told Anthony Edwards he hadn’t been to Minnesota in 20 years, which prompted Edwards to say “bring ya ass.”
Less than a day later, Minneapolis native and comedian Jon Savitt has already purchased a domain by the same quote — bringyaass.com — and has it set to redirect people to the Explore Minnesota tourism site.
