Stephen Colbert, the comedian who will replace Dave Letterman on CBS in September, provided the commencement speech at Wake Forest University’s graduation last month.
In it, the host of popular late-night show The Colbert Report joked about a tradition that students follow whenever the Wake Forest football team wins. Per Chris Moore of The ACC Sports Journal, Colbert said:
“This is a school that respects tradition. Traditions like rolling the quad with toilet paper after big wins. And this is actually an eco-friendly tradition because, looking at this season’s win-loss record, you guys saved a lot of paper.
