20 Funniest Things At The Stewart/Colbert Rally

Posted By: C.J. Arabia on 11.01.10

Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart held The Rally to Restore Sanity in Washington D.C. this weekend and it turned out to be an amazing success!

ABC News predicts that about 215,000 people showed up to the rally on Saturday. Compare that to the 87,000 that showed up for Glenn Beck's "Restoring Honor" rally in August. Glen's crowd was about 40% the size of the Stewart/Colbert rally! Way to go guys!

The hosts Jon Stewart & Stephen Colbert brought a lot of their celebrity friends to the rally like... the Roots, Sheryl Crow, Kid Rock, the Myth Busters guys, Tony Bennett, John Legend, Mavis Staples & Jeff Tweedy.

One of the highlights of the rally was when Jon Stewart brought Yusuf Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) up to the stage to sing his classic hippie hit "Peace Train"...

In the middle of the song Colbert interrupted, saying that he wasn't interested in a "peace train" and that he perferred a different kind of train... a Crazy Train... that's when Ozzy took the stage and busted out with his hit song.

That's when Jon interrupted Ozzy, and he and Colbert argued back and forth finally deciding that the only train they could actually agree upon was, the "Love Train."

Then suddenly the O Jay's appeared on stage to sing THEIR hit song Love Train. The crowd went wild. They loved it!

Another really cool part of the rally were the people who showed up to support! Seeing as it was Halloween weekend, they dressed up in crazy costumes to get their political point across!
