Potato prank lands library on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert"

The latest library prank to make late-night shows is, fortunately, much more innocent than previous ones.

Stephen Colbert featured a mysterious phenomenon occurring on the front lawn of the Wayland Free Public Library in Massachusetts: the appearance of potatoes.

This has been going for two weeks now, leading residents and talk-show hosts alike to speculate on what could possibly be happening.

Thanks to I Love Libraries for alerting us to the The Late Show with Stephen Colbert segment, which you can watch below.
