Saturday Night Live jokes about "rock eaters" and "freaks" in Plattsburgh

SNL’s take-down of Governor David Paterson’s scandal devolved into a weird mocking screed against upstate New York.

“Well, I’m going to do a farewell tour of upstate New York, hell-holes like Plattsburgh…I’m going to go speak at their town halls or whatever abandoned Shoney’s they huddle in. I’m going to give those rock eater something to cheer about. those freaks love me up there. They find me refreshingly off.”
