Matt Damon and Ben Affleck went on “The Tonight Show” on Tuesday, and while they were there, they teamed up with host Jimmy Fallon on a segment where they pronounced every city and town in Massachusetts. And it was just as hilarious as you’d expect.
You can watch a clip of the segment below:
The Cambridge actors, who are busy promoting their new Netflix movie “The Rip,” displayed their best Boston accents as they listed off all 351 Massachusetts town names. Fallon, wearing a Boston Red Sox hoodie, joined in (even though he’s a New Yorker).
“Abington, Acton, Acushnet, Adams, Agawam,” Damon began, as the three traded off listing off every single community in the state. And yes, almost every “r” turned into an “ah.”
“Foxborough, for your mutha,” Affleck said when he read off the home of the New England Patriots.
Fallon struggled a bit with the pronunciation of Winchendon, having to repeat it three times before he got it right.
Affleck closed it all out, with an extended “Yahmuth,” as he said the name of the Cape Cod town.
“The Tonight Show” mentioned in their Instagram post that they had to run the segment at 1.5x speed because Reels said the video had to be under 3 minutes.
Here’s the full appearance by Damon and Affleck, where they talk about their new movie, Affleck visiting Damon on the set of “The Odyssey” and more.
