A “Saturday Night Live” alum has been a really dangerous boy to an excellent lady.
On Tuesday, “Late Night” host Seth Meyers introduced on Instagram that his 14-year-old Italian greyhound, Frisbee, had handed away.
“RIP to Frisbee, our OG IG who I was happy to go grey with,” Meyers wrote alongside a carousel put up that included oodles of pics of his pup all through the years. “She was at her best curled in your lap and patient when we dressed her up like a pilgrim. Thanks for 14 amazing years, girl.”
Though Meyers adored Frisbee, one in every of Meyer’s associates and fellow “Saturday Night Live” alums despised her. And that pooch-hater is none apart from Andy Samberg.
The “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” star’s beef with a canine that in all probability weighed as a lot as a hamburger first grew to become public in 2014, when Meyers talked about his “adorable dog Frisbee” to Samberg on “Late Night.”
“You met my dog when she was, like, a 2-month-old puppy, and you basically said, ‘No, thank you,’” Meyers stated to Samberg.
“Frisbee is a dog, who, to me, looks kinda rat-like,” Samberg responded. “And I lived in New York a long time, and I don’t get down on rats.”
Ever since Samberg’s hatred for a tiny pup went public, it’s develop into an ongoing joke. A lot in order that Meyers obtained fellow “SNL” alum Amy Poehler to play a prank on Samberg final month on her podcast “Good Hang.”
Meyers requested Poehler to inform Samberg that Frisbee had died, and he or she did, prompting Samberg to reply with glee.
“Don’t even play because I’ll be so happy,” he informed her. “I will never back off that. That dog sucks, dude! And I know this is a good vibes cast, so I don’t even want to bring that energy, but that dog is like a rat carcass.”
And though Samberg has but to touch upon Frisbee’s actual passing, when Meyers introduced her dying on Tuesday, one of many prime feedback on his Instagram put up learn: “May her ghost haunt Andy Samberg forever 🙏🏻♥️”
Samberg is so closely linked to Frisbee that when many retailers reported the information that she had died, most squeezed the truth that she was Samberg’s nemesis into their headlines — together with The New York Instances.
Meyers even reposted a headline by Those that talked about Samberg’s identify on X on Tuesday. Within the tweet, Meyers made it clear that Samberg’s hatred for Frisbee was mutual.
“She also disliked him, FWIW,” Meyers wrote.
