The Bon Jovi/ESPN Commercial Jersey Check List

Let's recall the Bon Jovi video from Monday:

We've lived in New Jersey for...Christ on  a bicycle sixteen years. Longer than we have ever lived anyplace.  Though not a native we feel qualified to opine on our adopted home state.

Now let's count up all the Garden State name checks:

Bon Jovi
The Nets (they moved with good reason)
Princeton Tigers
Keyboard player Tico Torres wears  a NY Giants Kerry Collins jersey.
Then Governor Christie Todd Whitman (blonde woman in yellow jacket)
Beauty Queens (which takes care of AC)
Newark Bears (minor league baseball team)
Garden State Parkway signage
Rutgers Scarlet Knight, then as now pretending to be a serious football program
Corn!
Thomas Edison (a nice touch)
New Jersey Devils, who are pretty big in the state.

Interestingly there is no reference to the shore. What's up with that?

*Who's the woman dressed like a plumber supposed to be?
**We totally dig the Rutgers cheerleaders.
