Marshall: "I have a list too. It's called my marriage license."
(high-five)

Very funny episode, if a little over the top. Is the mystery woman Ted's wife? This show has more unanswered questions than Lost!
That NCAA pool in Staten Island they mentioned is real. It was a pretty big deal for many years around here, people would come in from different states to play.
Until one winner declared his prize with the IRS. Obviously, you're supposed to do that, but none of the past winners did. So, even though the pool was perfectly legal, the feds came sniffing around for info, and the bar owner decided he didn't need the hassle. Another bar picked it up this year, and it's gotten quite big again. I'm sure the IRS is watching closely.

Great episode. Anytime this show goes Barney-centric they have some golden moments.

Laughed pretty hard at the Marriage License High Five
One of the best in a long while; and not just because Lily had so much screentime. Though that didn't hurt.

The only laugh I got was the marriage license line.

My wife and I were rolling at that last scene. Great episode overall. Loved the "One Shining Moment" montage.

Nice Neil Patrick Harris promo for the new Harold & Kumar movie during the show. 
How are they going to perpetuate his character as a sex maniac from the 1st film now that NPH is out of the closet?

Easily up there with "Slap Bet" from last season as one of the best eps. I'm surprised it took them too long to tip their hat to Doogie. Complete with theme music! Classic!
