MORGAN: OK, let me ask you one.

KOTB: OK.

MORGAN: The New Yorkers boast about their Bronx Bombers.

KOTB: Yes.

MORGAN: The nickname for the New York Yankees.

KOTB: Yes. The Yankees. Yes.

MORGAN: My soccer team in Britain is Arsenal. What's our nickname?

KOTB: I don't even know what Arsenal is.

MORGAN: Exactly.

KOTB: What is it?

MORGAN: We don't know what Arsenal is?

KOTB: No, I don't.

MORGAN: The best soccer team in Britain.

KOTB: OK. They...

MORGAN: And the answer is we're known as the Gunners.

KOTB: The Gunners.

MORGAN: Or Gunners.

KOTB: Gunners. OK. So I picked hot dogs.

MORGAN: We've got fish and chips.

KOTB: Fish and chips. What would you rather have, honestly?

MORGAN: Oh, come on. Look at that. It's revolting.

KOTB: Revolting?

MORGAN: This is a proper meal.

KOTB: Have you been to Yankee Stadium?

MORGAN: Yes.

KOTB: And had a hot dog...

MORGAN: Yes.

KOTB: ...and watched the Yankees and fallen in love?

MORGAN: I rest my case. You have fish and chips in Britain, and you have a nice pint of beer. Look at this. This is real ale, not that revolting fizzy lager stuff you have here.

KOTB: All right.

MORGAN: Look at that. Look at the head on that.
