Stoned or ‘stone-cold sober’? Colin Jost corrects Pete Davidson on joint ferry buy
LA TimesColin Jost, left, disputed former co-star Pete Davidson’s claims that they were “very stoned” when they purchased a Staten Island ferry. “Mark my words.” In January 2022, months before Davidson departed “Saturday Night Live,” the “Bupkis” star and Jost joked about their purchase on “Weekend Update.” “It’s very exciting,” Jost said. “We thought the whole thing through.” “Even the mayor tweeted about it,” Davidson said, “which is how I found out we have a new mayor?” New York City Mayor Eric Adams wrote, “I love this idea.” Jost and Davidson, who were both born and raised in the Staten Island borough of New York City, dropped $280,100 on a decommissioned ferry boat that they hope to turn into an entertainment venue, the Associated Press reported. “And we’re figuring it out.” Jost concluded his Instagram post by promoting the “UNRELATED” news of his Ferry Money Tour, which kicks off Thursday at the Bayou Music Center in Houston.
