When You Had To Send A Message Before Cell Phones

A messenger tries to deliver urgent news from the American colonies… but the King of England is still living in a world without cell phones. This sketch imagines what “texting,” “notifications,” and “updates” would’ve looked like in 1776 — with all the chaos of modern communication but none of the technology. This is Sketch #2 from The Unfortunate Goats, our Las Vegas–based comedy group making weekly sketches and original characters. New sketches every week leading up to our full sketch universe debut.
