Don Lemon had the time of his life on New Year’s Eve. For those of you who didn’t see CNN’s coverage, imagine for a second the craziest party you went to in college – the beer bongs, the keg stands, the insanely dumb things said in between shots of tequila off someone else’s body. Now pretend all that was done on live TV in front of millions of viewers. OK, perhaps we’re exaggerating a little but a brief recap of Don Lemon’s night resembles something not far from that.
-He talked about Kathy Griffin’s “rack”
Haha. @donlemon is officially cut off. #CNNNYE #nicerackkathy pic.twitter.com/tKwrbmBRRf

Hell, he even retweeted people talking about how drunk he was.

Unsurprisingly, there were a lot of jokes told at Don Lemon’s expense.

Drunk Don Lemon is infinitely better than sober Don Lemon.

If Don Lemon isn’t Time’s Person of the Year in 2016, then we’re doing it wrong.
