It’s not often you get 150 Olympic medals on one conference call. #ESPYS pic.twitter.com/xXS5k0Ro9o

Keegan-Michael Key, comedian, actor, and man who misses sports as much as the rest of us, got three-and-a-half minutes for an ESPYs skit and crammed into it as many Olympic athletes — and medals — as possible. The goal was simple, but steep: to get 150 medals on one single video call.
No easy feat, but it helps when you bring in the heavy hitters. Simone Biles, Allyson Felix, Mikaela Shiffrin, Simone Manuel, Gabby Douglas, Mary Lou Retton, and other legendary Olympians all joined in with medals in hand. As for Michael Phelps, Mr. Olympics, the man with the most Olympic medals in history (28, NBD)? Well, he . . . kind of made an appearance.
