Fallon sang, “They shut down the tollbooths of glory ’cause we didn’t endorse Chris Christie.” He was joined by an identically dressed Springsteen and the duo sang, “You’re killing the working man/who’s stuck in Governor Christie’s Fort Lee, New Jersey traffic jam.”

Christie considers himself among The Boss’ biggest fans and said he wept after he got a hug from Springsteen at a benefit concert for Superstorm Sandy victims in 2012.
