VIDEO: Dalton Pompey on the Air Farce New Year’s Eve Special

As the fog from New Year’s Eve is finally beginning to dissipate, it tuns out Dalton Pompey had himself an interesting way of ringing in 2016; by starring in the Royal Canadian Air Farce New Year’s Eve special.

I’ve always had a strange soft spot for the Air Farce NYE special; prior to the traditional New Year’s celebrations, back when I was younger, I always used to watch this with my family. So it was cool to see a Blue Jays player like Pompey make a cameo.

Once Pompey enters the sketch, he has a few decent one-liners, like his explanation on how he was able to steal four bases in the playoffs.
