Alum Leslie Jones Reps Colorado State University In New Commercial

Saturday Night Live alum Leslie Jones is showing Colorado State University some love in a new commercial this March Madness.

Although Jones only attended CSU for one semester, the Rams left an impression on the comedian.

In a new March Madness Uber Eats commercial, two versions of Jones (a current version and a disgruntled 2020 version who is upset the games were canceled due to COVID-19) are seen wearing a Colorado State University hoodie and t-shirt.

In 1987, Jones played basketball at CSU but it was there she found her true calling.

In an interview with CSU magazine, Jones revealed that it was during her time in Fort Collins that she realized she wanted to be a comedian rather than a professional basketball player.

She also won a "funniest person on campus" which led her to a career in comedy and film.

"I think about that all the time: 'What if I had never moved to Colorado?' Would I have ever found out that I wanted to be a comedian? Where would be today?" said Jones in the interview.

This March Madness, CSU earned a No. 1 seed in the NIT Tournament according to 9NEWS.

Rams fans like Jones can see the CSU men's basketball team take on NC State on Thursday, March 25.
