SNL had some fun with Utica on Thursday night during a skit with “Governor David Paterson”. In the sketch, Paterson (played by Fred Armisen) was asked by Seth Meyers whether or not he had a chance to win if he ran for Governor against other hopefuls like Cuomo and Guilianni. He responded, “Those cologn-soaked, city-slickers are never going to connect with the gumbys in upstate NY. I dare Andrew Cuomo to show his pretty face in Utica, the locals will just hide in their caves and through boulders at him.”
