Well-known national sports show host shouts out Columbus and a popular local bar while on the air

McAfee was discussing a recent trip to the Indianapolis location of Pins Mechanical Co. with regular show guest and former Buckeyes linebacker AJ Hawk, when Hawk notified him that the concept was created in Columbus.

Following this, McAfee took a minute to shout out central Ohio, while noting he partook in duckpin bowling, bocce ball and more. You can watch the entire clip here.
