Fattest Town in America...

And we have Sky Rockets in Flight. We have flown past the goal of 200 likes on the YouTube page. We're like at 253 right now.

**Nigel** (0:13)
About that, huh?

**Hammer** (0:14)
Which means I am rocking out this very awesome star spangled blazer. Sans the shirt, Nigel, what do you think?

**Nigel** (0:23)
I'm going to regret saying this. I think you've got the the jacket buttoned up. I think you probably need to unbutton it and just go, just let it all hang out.

**Hammer** (0:35)
Well, let me just give everybody their fantasies right now.

**Nigel** (0:38)
Allison, are you watching?

**Hammer** (0:40)
I have my head in the trash. My head is up here, Allison. Oh, here it is. Look at that.
That's right.

**Nigel** (0:49)
American boy. Oh dear Lord.

**Hammer** (0:51)
Some of us just happen to love this country a little bit more than others, apparently.

**Nigel** (0:55)
Where did you get that thing? Where? Let me be more specific. Where did you get the jacket?

**Hammer** (1:04)
The thing came with me.
The jacket. I don't know. I've had this for a couple of years.

**Nigel** (1:10)
It's impressive.

**Hammer** (1:11)
I wear this on special occasions, and I thought, you know what? As we gear up for America 250, we've got a big America 250 live broadcast on Monday in Noblesville.

**Nigel** (1:22)
Yeah.

**Hammer** (1:23)
But today would be a good day to rock this bad boy out, complete with the headband here and the star spangled blazer. It's a little big now. Well, it is. You're right. Thank you, Allison. I appreciate that. Yes, it's originally purchased when I was at my heaviest, which was around $2.75.

**Nigel** (1:42)
Fat guy in a little coat.

**Hammer** (1:45)
And now there's a little room to spare here. So, yeah, here. Speaking of room to spare, Allison, can I get some mood music?
Come on.

**Nigel** (2:01)
Is that a purpose?

**Hammer** (2:04)
Dateline, McAllen, Texas. OK, there's a new fattest town in America.
And it's not McAllen, Texas. They were the previous winners. It's not Beech Grove. It's Little Rock, Arkansas.

**Nigel** (2:20)
Oh, wow. OK.

**Hammer** (2:21)
So I think for a couple of years, McAllen, Texas had the title of fattest town in America. But now it's Little Rock, Arkansas, where, according to the latest information, 70 percent of the population overweight and obese.

**Nigel** (2:37)
70 percent. God bless America. I mean, like, get into it.
Like, if you want job security, I think health care is probably it because those people are going to need care for the rest of their lives. But 70 percent obese.

**Hammer** (2:56)
What doctors view as obese can vary, right?

**Nigel** (3:00)
Like, I think there's a clinical, technical percentage, like a BMI or whatever.

**Hammer** (3:05)
I'm against the BMI. That is bullcrap.
My doctor has told me that.

**Nigel** (3:10)
Body mass index.

**Hammer** (3:11)
Yeah. Like, the number they want you to be at, like, OK, that's if I'm 10 pounds over that, I'm still pretty good, right? That's what I'm saying. I think they're a little ridiculous. And 70 percent. I'm not saying that these folks down there don't just eat pork fritter after pork fritter, but it feels like some of those folks probably are in that gray area where they're fine, but technically obese.
Like, if you look at the BMI index, like some of these, you know, I know, baseball players are probably obese, but they're in great shape, like I am, as you can see in this star spangled jacket.

**Nigel** (3:47)
All right, button it back up.
