Conan Banned from Newark, New Jersey
New Jersey has been the butt of late-night jokes made by Jennifer Aniston and Conan O'Brien -- and the Garden State is fighting back!
Conan poked fun at Newark on "The Tonight Show," saying, "The mayor of Newark, New Jersey wants to set up a citywide program to improve residents' health... the health care program would consist of a bus ticket out of Newark."
Newark Mayor Cory Booker posted a tongue-in-cheek video on YouTube responding to Conan's claims, and telling the late night host he's on Newark Airport's "No-Fly List."
Booker ended his video message with, "Try JFK, buddy!"

Jen did not make a joke about NJ. Chelsea did. Jen just stated a fact. Watch the clip and you’ll see this. Jen just asked what’s with the smell in that one particular area in NJ. I’m from NJ and everyone knows that smell by the Elizabeth exit off the Tpke has been there for years and knows it is from the oil refineries and chemical plants that are there.
