arrow Did They Just Say Fresno? Fresno + Leno IV

When it comes to Did They Just Say Fresno, Jay Leno is our most common invoker. Last night, he of the big chin uttered our favorite F word when talking about the Kern County sheriff's office and its "We'll kick your ass" slogan. (Thanks to Marty on the head's up)

This makes --and let's count 'em off -- one, two and now three times Leno has made it into "DTJSF," and four if you count his recent exchange with our own Bernice Gallego. Thanks, Jay. I may not find you the least bit funny, but I appreciate your dedication to saying Fresno.

DID THEY JUST SAY FRESNO BONUS: Did you see the Fresno connection to hero pilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger? It's on the front page of The Bee today and is making national news.

What does Kern County have to do with Fresno (other then it is in the same valley but 100 miles apart) ?

I dunno, actually. I couldn't find a clip and I didn't see it. I'm guessing he said it was near Fresno or something like that, though.

Their slogan isn't even slightly surprising...

However, what is surprising is that Fresno's police cars don't say

"We'll shoot ya, armed or not"

@andy and mike: i heard it. he said kern county at first, then he said "this is from fresno" so i think it was when the bee reported on it in december.

but he didnt say the fresno bee. just "fresno" ... so im guessing most people listening (who cared) would assume fresno is in kern county.

You guys seem to be doing a fine job at tabulating the latest Fresno TV mentions, but is there a list somewhere of movie's that mention or incorporate Fresno? Off the dome I can think of Honey I Shrunk the Kids, Con Air, Guncrazy, and Twelve Monkeys. I'm sure there's more, somebody help.
