Samuel L. Jackson is a pretty great follow when it comes to the Rio Olympic Games on Twitter, but he’s got NOTHING on SNL’s Leslie Jones.
She was live-tweeting events in the early morning on Friday, WAY before the Opening Ceremony and hasn’t stopped since. From the looks of her tweets she hasn’t missed a single event and her commentary on each one has been the best thing about these Olympics.
Yep we got us a medal Ginny Thrasher shooting that rifle! pic.twitter.com/0CzPxk1TS2

In fact, they are SO good that she even got an offer to come down to Rio and do her thing at the Games themselves.

She’s still deciding whether or not to take them up on the offer.
So the question is….should I go? Hmmm

In the mean time, you HAVE to see some of the amazing commentary she’s been providing for everything from shooting to swimming to cycling to well, pretty much everything. (Note: This is like 10% of the tweeting she’s done about the Games. It’s truly been amazing.)
Leslie Jones is all of us.
