Conan O’Brien visits KPRC 2 Houston

Conan O’Brien made a stop in Houston at KPRC to promote his move to the Tonight Show at 10:35pm. He has been visiting NBC affiliates across the nation.

Full coverage on littlelostrobot and @RyCayari. More photos of Conan at KPRC plus one here.

I have to wonder if Conan brought up his old feud with KPRC who used to push his show back to 2:40am in favor of Jenny Jones or Jerry Springer depending on the year. Conan used to call KPRC out on his show for doing this.  In fact in 1997, he showed up here to see what was going on in Houston in the early morning when the show aired.  The pieces were recently re-aired on the best of Late Night during O'Brien's last weeks. WATCH THE HOUSTON VIDEO HERE. It is very funny stuff including Rice University and the Astrodome.

After KPRC, Conan then stopped by a Houston hotspot for fun according to the Houston Chronicle's Shelby Hodge:

Conan O’Brien loving life at Café Annie on Monday night where he and a party of three feasted on the sea scallops special, mojitos and several bottles of Hobbs Chardonnay.  READ THE REST

UPDATE
See the Channel 2 KPRC Conan O'Brien promos way before they air.
