Meet Jacob the Bar Mitzvah Boy’s Dad
By Anne Cohen April 13, 2015
Passover went out with a bang this year. To celebrate the last matzo box making it into the trash, Saturday Night Live brought in an unexpected guest: Introducing podiatrist Billy Crystal as Jacob the Bar Mitzvah Boy’s dad!
The father-son duo came to explain why Passover is different from all other nights (Highlight: “The third reason Passover is different from other nights, is that we dip twice. I don’t know about you, but I always dip my food twice. Once in salsa, and once in guacamole!”). You do the math.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
