Falcons Reference On The Tv Show 30 Rock

In the show Jenna says: "Picking a lock is like riding a bike...they're both skills you need to escape the Atlanta Falcons equipment room."

I'm not completely understanding the reference here. Any insights?

She was there the night before the '98 super bowl.

Our strength and conditioning coaches are notorious for being very hardcore when it comes to the weight room for our players. They lock the doors to the weight room, so players can't leave until they are done working out and if a player does manage to escape, our coaches are so fast that you can't outrun them, so you would need a bicycle to avoid them chasing you down and sending you back to the weight room.

That would be a good explanation except she was referring to the equipment room not the weight room. I'm thinking now that the equipment room definitely need to be locked since it has the jerseys etc. and it can be too big of a room that you need a bike to escape it. And maybe they just picked a random team.

They probably just picked a random team to go with that joke.

Lol at Master Exploder

and the media doesn't pick the Falcons as a random team, they pick the Steelers and Patriots etc.

It's in episode 2 of season 6. You can skip to 10:35.

Well, that was the first couple of minutes of 30 Rock I've ever watched. Usually hate movies/TV shows that start former SNL'ers, so I've never watched it. But my guess, since it seems so random to pick our team, was based on our performance in NY just a few days prior. We played the Giants on the 8th & that episode was on the 19th. But that's assuming they don't film way ahead.

I hate that show I just don't find it that funny... TO be honest I usually find that with most American comedy shows, you guys do dramas well but comedy you just haven't got. Movies do well but some reason I find it hasn't transferred to TV.

You can't say that Big Bang Theory isn't funny, though.
