\u201cDaily Show\u201d<\/a> host Jon Stewart<\/a> made a surprise appearance Jimmy Kimmel\u2019<\/a>s final night hosting his show in Brooklyn on Friday night. <\/p>\n

Emerging from the \u201csewers\u201d of the Brooklyn Academy of Music wearing the garb of the people recently caught climbing in and out of New York City manholes,<\/a> Stewart drew a rousing applause from the studio audience as he revealed himself. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the hell are you doing down there?\u201d Kimmel asked. \u201cAre you an urban scavenger?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cUrban scavenger?\u201d Stewart replied. \u201cHow about a hello? How about \u2018Nice to see you\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n

Stewart said he was not scavenging things in the sewer, but rather bringing things down \u201cfor the rats.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m like a little rat Santa,\u201d Stewart said. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat gifts do you bring rats?\u201d Kimmel asked. <\/p>\n

\u201cPelotons,\u201d Stewart said sarcastically. \u201cWhat do you think I mean\u2014Amazon<\/a> gift cards? I bring food. They\u2019re rats!\u201d<\/p>\n

After a person in a rat suit appeared and Stewart fed him a piece of pizza, Kimmel protested, saying he didn\u2019t believe it was right for Stewart to be giving pizza to the rats.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, I\u2019m sorry. I\u2019m sorry. I didn\u2019t know you were the boss of Brooklyn. Let me tell you something. As Jesus said, and by the way, I shouldn\u2019t know this. You should know this. As Jesus said, if you give a rat a pizza, he eats for a day. But if you teach a rat to make his own pizza…\u201d Stewart said, trailing off.<\/p>\n

When asked about the conditions of the sewers, Stewart said Rudy Giuliani is still mayor and there was a Mets game down there scheduled later that night. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Mets are still playing in the sewer?\u201d Kimmel said. <\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve been playing in the sewer all year, too,\u201d Stewart said before retreating into his manhole. <\/p>\n
