“How many donkeys are there in NYC?”/“Five burros.”

New York City had five boroughs. It’s sometimes joked that New York has five burros. A restaurant in Forest Hills, Queens, called “5 Burro Cafe” opened in 1990.

Once again Fred Armisen is right, there are several Donkeys in New York City. I can think of at least five burros by name. #LNSM @sethmeyers
