A few weeks ago, John Oliver reported on the unusual auction that Russell Crowe was hosting called “The Art of Divorce,” where Crowe sold off artifacts from his career, including a now-famous jockstrap, which sold for a whopping $7,000. In an unsurprising turn of events, Oliver bought the jock strap. On the April 18 episode of Last Week Tonight, he announced the purchase and his decision to donate the jock strap and a few other pieces of Crowe’s movie memorabilia to the last Blockbuster video store in Anchorage, Alaska. The only problem with the otherwise foolproof and generous plan was that Oliver didn’t actually know anyone at the last Blockbuster in Anchorage, Alaska.
