Matt Damon and Ben Affleck went on “The Tonight Show”<\/a> on Tuesday, and while they were there, they teamed up with host Jimmy Fallon on a segment where they pronounced every city and town in Massachusetts. And it was just as hilarious as you’d expect.<\/p>\n

You can watch a clip of the segment below:<\/p>\n

The Cambridge actors, who are busy promoting their new Netflix movie “The Rip,” displayed their best Boston accents as they listed off all 351 Massachusetts town names. Fallon, wearing a Boston Red Sox<\/a> hoodie, joined in (even though he’s a New Yorker).<\/p>\n

“Abington, Acton, Acushnet, Adams, Agawam,” Damon began, as the three traded off listing off every single community in the state. And yes, almost every “r” turned into an “ah.”<\/p>\n

“Foxborough, for your mutha,” Affleck said when he read off the home of the New England Patriots<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fallon struggled a bit with the pronunciation of Winchendon, having to repeat it three times before he got it right.<\/p>\n

Affleck closed it all out, with an extended “Yahmuth,” as he said the name of the Cape Cod town.<\/p>\n

“The Tonight Show” mentioned in their Instagram post that they had to run the segment at 1.5x speed because Reels said the video had to be under 3 minutes.<\/p>\n

Here’s the full appearance by Damon and Affleck, where they talk about their new movie, Affleck visiting Damon on the set of “The Odyssey” and more.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Matt Damon and Ben Affleck went on “The Tonight Show” on Tuesday, and while they were there, they…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":407123,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[88,195939,92],"class_list":["post-407122","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-tonight-show-with-jimmy-fallon","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/407122","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=407122"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/407122\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/407123"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=407122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=407122"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=407122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
