Now, fast food. It had to come from somewhere. It had to be born somewhere. – Uh-huh. – Let’s try to figure out where it was born. It’s time for “Hut! Hut! Bite! Fast Food Birthplace Edition.” – Welcome back to the Booty Booty Booty Hiking Everywhere Stadium, home to the Mythical rings. – Man, look at those rings. Stevie, What’s new? – [Stevie] So we’re doing things a little bit differently this time around. Instead of trying famous dishes from sports stadiums, you’re gonna be eating from famous fast food establishments. – Good. – [Stevie] You’ll be presented with a meal from a variety of iconic restaurants, and you’ll each have three chances to hike a football to the state you think it was founded in. – Yeah. – Once your hike is caught, you’re locked into that guess. If you guess correctly, it’s worth six points. If you fail to connect with the correct state, there’s still a chance to walk away with three points by correctly answering a trivia question about that state. And in every round, one of the incorrect states will be a designated penalty box, meaning if you hike your ball to that state, you’ll incur a three-point penalty. The location of the penalty box will change every round. The winner gets to make the loser shout something real stupid every time this sound plays in “Good Mythical More.” (upbeat music) – Okay. I’ve heard that sound before. – [Both] Say something stupid! – Now, Penalty box, that’s hockey. Hiking- – is football. – This is football. What’s that gotta do with fast food? – [Stevie] And I believe this sound is baseball now. – Yeah, and that’s a baseball sound. – Yeah. – We’re mixing sports metaphors. – [Stevie] Well, you know what each of these sports does have? A referee, just like KG the referee, who’s gonna do the coin flip to see who goes first. – Called an umpire in baseball. – Okay. – Correct. – Called an officiant in weddings. – Yep. Right. (crew laughing) – [Stevie] Correct. – Okay. Link, since you lost last time, you get to call the toss. We have heads. – Heads. – And we have tails. – Tails. – Okay. Which one? You know which one you’re gonna call? – No. Tails. – It’s heads. – It’s heads. (Link blows raspberry) – So Rhett will go second. – Who cares? – Okay. (upbeat music) – Before we get started, let’s see who we got on the field today. – What’s up? I’m Colorado, and in 1858, US settlers came to Cherry Creek when they discovered gold, which is present-day Denver. – Right. – And then it became a state. – Okay. – Wow. Okay. (crew laughing) Pick up the pace, Colorado. – Hello. I’m Muffy. I’m from Connecticut. And did you know that silly string is banned in Southington, Connecticut? – ‘Cause it messes up your paint. – Yes. Yes. The houses needed to be painted over and over again, and I just, I couldn’t afford any more servants. – Wow. She’s very high society. – Yes, she is. – Howdy, y’all. I’m Florida Man, named Pipe Johnson. I once wrestled three gators with only a cast-iron skillet. (crew laughing) – Did you win? – Oh, hell yeah, brother. (Rhett laughing) – People are like, wow, you understood him. – Yeah. – Yeah. We understood every word. – Illinois. Let’s hear it. – Okay. – All right. All right. It looks like Michael Myers. He usually doesn’t say anything. – [Link] Michigan. – Hello, I’m from Michigan. I’m a proud auto worker and a union man. If you wouldn’t mind, I’d like to offer a brief personal update as to what’s been going on with me. – We wouldn’t mind at all. – Well, all right then. As you might remember, in the past, I have professed to hate the Transformers because my wife ran away with one of those robots in disguise while they were filming a movie in the beautiful state of Michigan. Well, things have changed. After seeing the episode, my wife slid into my DMs and let me know that she was sorry and that she wanted me to join her and her new lover, Sideswipe, in a three-being relationship. And let me tell you, that alien from another world disguised as a car made love to me like no flesh human ever could. – Okay. All right. – And so now, I love those Transformers. (Rhett laughing) – Tennessee. – Hey y’all. I’m from Tennessee. Did you know that the Piggly Wiggly opened here in 1916? – 1916? – I think Tennessee’s also a musician of sorts. – Aspiring. – Okay. – Okay. Georgia. – Hi, I’m Georgia, and our state motto is wisdom, justice and moderation, but I didn’t know nothing about moderation when I got sweet tea! – Sweet tea. – Washington. – Hey, I’m Washington, home of Sydney Sweeney, as I did, you know, as I said last time, and apparently, people found that creepy. So it’s also the headquarters of Amazon, the greatest company in the world. – Okay. – Okay. – All right. – I love them and I love the way they use drones to get us packages. Not a sponsor. – [Rhett] Very enthusiastic. – [Stevie] Okay, we are kicking things off with Burger King, and- – What’s in here? – [Stevie] …of course, you have the iconic Whopper that- – [Rhett] Without cheese. – [Stevie] The reveal was not great on that one, I gotta say. – What do you mean? – Well, I just, when I said the iconic Whopper, and it looked like that, it just was kind of- – Oh yeah. – [Link] Yeah. That’s okay. Maybe it tastes good. – It needs cheese. So this is not when the Whopper was invented. This is when Burger King- – No. – …where Burger King was invented. – Yeah. – We all know what’s going on. – Yeah, I don’t. All right, so- – And you go first. – And I gotta go first. Okay. I know what’s going on. – Where is Burger King from? – I got you. I got you. Where does Burger King start? – [Rhett] Hmm. – I don’t know, man. Up there in Illinois, I feel like you were really early on in the burger game, right? Whose blood is that on your knife? – [Rhett] Yeah. – I don’t know. I’m gonna go with my gut on this one. I just feel like it’s Illinois. And thanks for the Illinois facts. Are you gonna catch it with the knife? – Oh yeah. He’s probably gonna stab it. Nope. That was not Michael’s fault. He’s mad now. – Don’t get mad. – You’ve upset him. – [Link] Don’t get mad. Come on now, Jason. I mean, Michael. – [Rhett] He’s so… Oh, now you called him Jason. – Here we go. You ready? Yes! See? I left nothing to chance. I threw it right through his hole. I mean, Burger King seems like that Illinois-type thing. – Well, you’ve made Michael mad. You’ve made him very, very mad. – Wasn’t he already mad? – I’m tempted to go there again for reasons I will explain in a second, but- – Oh yeah? – But let’s consider some other possibilities. – Sure. – They love burgers in Florida. – Well, four mains used in a private plane to draw a giant radar penis. (crew laughing) – I think he said giant radar penis. – Yes, sir. – I have some experience with giant radar penises. (crew laughing) – Yeah. We’ve heard. The reason that Illinois was what I was thinking, and I was hoping that you wouldn’t go there, Link, is because- – Really? – …I think there was a burger concentration in Chicago, and I think that Burger King was taking all their hints from McDonald’s, and so that’s why I’m just gonna say Illinois. – [Link] Oh gosh. See? It’s tough. – It’s tough with that knife. – [Link] He’s not putting his knife down. – So you gotta get it in the hole. – You do. – There we go. Oh wow! What a bobble! Man. Out of all- – He’s so upset. – …the answers, you had to copy mine. – Well, I was gonna do it and I was hoping you wouldn’t. – Okay. Stevie, are we right? – [Stevie] Burger King was first established in 1953 as Insta Burger King in Florida. – Oh! – Dang! (buzzer buzzes) – We got the Burger King and the Tiger King! (crew laughing) – [Stevie] So you both have a chance now to win three points- – Okay. – [Stevie] …’cause you both lost the six there, and you have to get this trivia question about Florida correct. On average, how many people move to Florida every day? – Every day? – [Stevie] Every day. Your options are A, 1,218, B, 574, C, 2,000, or D, 908. And somehow I’m gonna give you a three, two, one. You’ve now memorized all of the letters and numbers that I gave you. – I had a guess. I didn’t think you were gonna give us multiple choice. I had a guess, so I’m just gonna go with what was closest to my guess. – [Stevie] Okay. Three, two, one. – [Both] A. – [Stevie] It’s A. – Yeah, I was gonna say 1,400, but you didn’t give me an opportunity to. – I mean, we both, out of four random guesses, we’re both saying the exact same thing. – Yeah. So we both get- – You need- – [Both] Three points. (upbeat music) – [Stevie] Next, we have some chips, guac, salsa, and barbacoa tacos from the one and only Chipotle. – Oh, barbacoa. – I’ve never ordered tacos from Chipotle. What the- – Until today. – And they’re hard? – Well- – They got hard tacos at Chipotle? – You call that hard? – Well, I didn’t know if it had just softened ’cause it’s been a while. (crew laughing) – It doesn’t take long. – I think it’s usually hard. – It doesn’t take long to soften up. – Hmm. Chipotle. What could that be from? I’m still going first? – You’re still up. (Link humming) – Florida, buddy, I love talking to you, but you’re off the board now. – Well, I gotta take a run out to Bass Pro Shop anyway, so I’ll see y’all later. – Oh. No, don’t leave. Just stay here. – I couldn’t get out if I wanted to. (crew laughing) – That’s a pretty good accent. – Just so you know, I’m not copying you. – Chipotle. – I’m going to… I’m licking my answer on the back of this chip so you’ll know that I didn’t cheat. – [Link] What’s the most Southwest state we got up here? Well, Georgia. – Just so you know. – Georgia, you’re south. – Hey, did you know that George’s nickname is the Peach State? And I got a bunch of peaches in this ice tea! – Oh. – Go, Bulldogs! – But you’re not west. You’re just south. – I trust you! (Rhett laughs) – There’s not really any great Southwest option. But Chipotle is a values-based company with Aztec decorations. – Hmm. – Just somebody with a lot of ideas, a lot of time on their hand, a lot of space. Colorado, perhaps. – Ooh. Sorry, wait. I think I got altitude sickness. – Oh, you’re not used to it? – It’s a physical distress from a body not being able to handle low oxygen pressure. Most cases are minor, but some may be life threatening. – That sounded like he was just acting like he was having altitude sickness so he could explain it. – I’m feeling like Chipotle gives Colorado vibes more than anything else up here. Get ready. – Okay. Sorry. – Come on now. Don’t be so sluggish, okay? Help me out. Here we go. Oh, I overshot it! I overshot it. – It wasn’t even close. Not even close. – All right. Come on. Come on. I’m ready again. – [Rhett] That’s why we have multiple chances. – There we go. There we go. Right down the middle! – Nice work. I’m not gonna copy you, Link. – [Link] What’d you lick on your chip, homie? – I… Well, let me have a little fun first. – [Link] Have a little fun. – Let me have a little fun. You know, we haven’t checked in with Connecticut. Connecticut and tacos, that doesn’t seem like it goes together, but maybe I’m wrong. – I mean, I myself have never had a taco, but I do know that helicopters were invented in Connecticut in 1939. It’s from my granddaddy Cornelius. He was a very rich man. (Rhett sighs) – I think it’s Washington. – You think it’s Washington state? – I licked a W on the back of my chip. The reason I’m choosing- – Northwestern. – …Washington is because Chipotle was an innovation in fast food with the choose-your-own adventure situation. It was like fresh ingredients, but it’s fast, but… It started a revolution in the, I don’t know what you call that. I don’t know what you call that type of restaurant. And so I think that feels like something that happened in a center of innovation- – Yeah. – Like Washington, like Seattle. – Okay. – He doesn’t agree. – Yeah, yeah, yeah. – Get that ball. But he doesn’t get enthusiastic about anything, so- – Yeah, just… – See? He’s still holding his phone. Oh, that was too easy. – Too easy. – Too easy. (Rhett sighs) Must mean it was wrong. – [Stevie] The founder and CEO of Chipotle opened the first Chipotle in an abandoned ice cream store in 1993 in Denver, Colorado. – Dang it! (bell dings) – We both had good guesses, but I had the right answer. – [Rhett] Yeah. – [Stevie] Link, that means you won six points, but Rhett, you still have a chance to get three if you answer this question about Colorado correctly. – Okay. – [Stevie] In Colorado Springs, Colorado, two men set the record for the longest session of what sport? – Whoa, okay. Thank you for clarifying it was a sport. – [Stevie] A, poker, B, pickleball, C, billiards, or D, badminton? – Longest session? – [Stevie] Longest sesh. – I’m gonna go with the shuttlecock, badminton. – [Stevie] It was C, billiards. (buzzer buzzes) – Love that. That means they both sucked at billiards. (crew laughing) (upbeat music) – [Stevie] Up next, we have the ultimate pepperoni pizza from the world-famous Domino’s. – World famous? – Hmm. That’s a- – Domino’s. – That’s not a great looking pizza. – Hmm. Let’s just close it back, man. – Tastes pretty good. – Mm-hmm. (claps) I’m still going first because I’m winning. Okay. – Hmm. Oh. – Hmm. – Tastes better than it looks. – Domino’s. Who would start a pizza chain? – Who would do that? – With a domino as the logo? Michigan. Is there a minivan Transformer? Lots of ways to get in a minivan. – Well, you’re right about that. I have not met all the Transformers, but I sure as heck have met Sideswipe. – I mean, it seems like it could be a Connecticut thing. I mean, you like really competitive, highfalutin games like backgammon and dominoes. – Yes, I’ve never played dominoes, but I more spend my time at the derby. But our state animal is the sperm whale if that does anything for you. – Doesn’t do anything for me at all. – Mm-mm. Mm-mm. – I’m into it. (crew laughing) – I’m gonna go with Connecticut. Come on now. Try. – I’m trying, darling. These hands haven’t been used in a very long time. – What about the elbows? Extend them. – Oh yes, yes. – There you go. – Here we go. Let me try again. There you go! You got it! She got a little sauce in her catch. – Mm-hmm. (crew laughing) – Man, Georgia, you’re always so happy. – Yeah! Did you know that Coca-Cola was invented in Georgia? – I did. – And there’s 50% Coca-Cola in this sweet tea! – Oh wow. She was sitting on that one. – [Georgia] Yeah! – 50% Coke. – Yeah! – I feel like it might be Illinois, not just because I wanna bring, you know, Michael back into the game, but this just feels like, again, I think that Chicago, it’s a pizza town. Now, obviously, this isn’t Chicago-style pizza, but they were like, we can’t be making this deep-dish stuff and getting it out the door real fast, putting it in cars and stuff, so we gotta do something a little bit flatter and so- – And so Illinois. – Illinois. – Oh, what? – Whoa! – Look at that! – Whoa! Whoa! – I think that counts. – I think it counts. It was clearly a catch, according to the rules of football. – [Stevie] Well, I hate to be the one to say this, but I am the one to say this. Link, you hiked your ball right into the penalty box. (buzzer buzzes) – No! – Oh! What a stupid aspect of this game. – Wow. It’s never happened before. – You would never know where it is until you hit it, and there, I did. – [Stevie] And you lost three points. I’m so sorry. – Oh! (buzzer buzzes) – Yeah, it’s bad. – Good gosh. – [Stevie] But did you know, that just eight months after the grand opening of the first Domino’s, one of the founding partners decided to trade his stake in the company for a used Volkswagen Beetle? And the first ever Domino’s was in Michigan. – Dang! (buzzer buzzes) – I’ve also used a Volkswagen Beetle. (Rhett laughs) – Do I get a trivia, please? – [Stevie] I’ve been told you don’t get a trivia. Thank you. – Oh, penalty. Double penalty. – [Stevie] But Rhett, answer this correctly about Michigan, and you get three points. – I need ’em. – [Stevie] Michigan has the world’s largest store of a specific theme. What is that theme? – Michigan. – A, Halloween. – It’s a gift shop. – [Stevie] B, Christmas, C, auto parts, or D, sports? – Sports. – Just sports? – Sports, yeah. Sports themed. – Oh no. They love their Christmas up in Michigan. I know that. B. – That’s what I would’ve guessed. – [Stevie] You are correct. – Yes! – [Stevie] The store has more than five acres of shopping space. – You can’t get too much Christmas. – [Stevie] Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland. – Hmm. Okay. (upbeat music) – [Stevie] The tie is scored, and we’re finishing up strong with a Cinnabon from- – Cinnabon. – [Stevie] Cinnabon. – Look at that. A nice little- – [Link] And they cut the whole thing in half, so you can just- – So we can just grab the middle and eat it. – I like to save the middle for last. Hmm. – That’s good. – I feel like you should go first now because I hit the penalty box. We’re tied now. Any rationale you give can help me. – Uh. Okay. (crew laughing) I feel like I got forced into that. But what if you copy me? – That’s my prerogative. – Okay. – But that would only tie us. – Wow. Cinnabon. A place where they like dessert, with a little frosting on it. – I feel like it could be anywhere, you know? – It really could be anywhere. Like a place that’s a little bit cool, both in vibe and also in temperature, like Washington. – Hey! Jeff Bezos hates PowerPoint. (crew laughing) He insists on printing out six pages before a meeting and having people read them. – Michael Myers is about to touch you with his knife. (crew laughing) – [Washington] Is that what he’s been doing this whole time? – Coming at you Washington. – Yeah. Put it in my mouth. (crew laughing) – That was too high. – It came right back to me. – You’re trying too hard. – My mouth’s right here. – Too low. – All right. You have once chance. – I dropped my phone. – You have one more chance. – Now, I’m nervous. Now, I’m nervous. – I can do it. Just calmly. – [Rhett] Oh God! – Okay. It does not count, dude. I’m sorry. – Thank God I was worse. – I’m sorry. – What about all the times that’s happened to you and we’ve edited it out? (crew laughing) Like literally every single time it’s ever happened to you, and we’ve edited it out and just continued with the game. – Prove it, though. (crew laughing) – Yeah, okay. Can we roll all those? – Fine, I’ll give you one more, but you gotta be further back. You gotta be over here. – Oh. Okay. – That was on you, dog. That was on you. – That was on you, man. All right. From there, two more tries. – Yeah, just keep doing it. I just want to catch it. – It’s only so many hours in the day, man. People gotta… There we go. Okay. (crew clapping) – Okay. – That was pretty magnanimous on my part. – Wow. – I don’t know what he is talking about. – Yeah. Yeah. It was. – Dang. Really could be anywhere. Illinois, Georgia, Tennessee, Washington. I think Illinois needs a claim to fame, but I also want it to be Georgia. I could see this being Georgia. It’s a very decadent, southern, sweet thing. More southern than Tennessee. – Yeah. Did you know that we are the most populous state number eight? And we failed the Stanley Cup eight times! – The most popular state number eight. – I didn’t know that, ’cause I don’t know what that means. – I think it means the eighth most popular state or eighth most populous state. – Oh! That was high. – Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. – Colorado’s hat came off. – Okay, here we go. Nice snag, Georgia! – I got it! – Yep! All right. That sweet tea drew me into the sweetness. – [Stevie] I have previously stated this and I apologize, but Link, you’ve really done it. You’ve done it again. – Oh! – [Stevie] You got right in the penalty box again. – What? – Sorry man. – I’m sorry. (buzzer buzzes) And we can’t cut it out, unfortunately. (crew laughing) – I don’t understand. – We can’t cut it out. – I hate this penalty box. It’s just so dumb and stupid. – Yeah, it’s weird. – And somehow directed only at me ever. (crew laughing) – [Stevie] Okay. When the first Cinnabon opened its doors in 1985, the only thing on the menu was the classic cinnamon roll, and it was in the grand old state of Washington- – Hey! – …which means Rhett, you take this one, and you get to make up something really stupid for Link to shout every time you hear this sound in “Good Mythical More.” (upbeat music) – Bezos! (crew laughing) – [Rhett] It might be Bezos. – Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. – All right, y’all say you know what time it is. – [All] What time it is! – Hi, I’m Des and this is Remy, the Australian Shepherd, and it’s time to spin the Wheel (wheel rattling) of Mythicality. Good pull, boy! What’d you get? Oh, you can’t do that to me. It’s raining. – No, it’s too much. I can’t take the cuteness. – He was like bored. He is like, okay, I know what’s gonna happen.
