Betty White's team of senior pranksters have been spotted in Park Slope. The 90-year-old actress has a new show called Off Their Rockers, which is basically Punk'd but with White instead of Ashton Kutcher. FIPS noticed that in a recent episode of the hidden-camera prank show (which airs on NBC) takes place in Park Slope! Even though it's mostly filmed in Los Angeles.
They write, "But about halfway through the episode, I caught this above scene, shot in our very own Park Slope (9th Street between 5th and 6th Avenue, to be exact)! That's right, Betty White's old fogies are walking the streets of the Slope, wreaking havoc on our sorry asses." Check it out here at the 1:30 mark:
