It was, in fact, the most expensive car in the world dressed up to look like a rodent, complete with ears and whiskers. Adorable! As a soundtrack, he chose the original master recording of the Rolling Stones&#8217; &quot;Satisfaction,&quot; bringing the price tag for the comedy bit to a whopping $1.5 million. But was it funny? Sure, if you&#8217;re Team Coco. The network, by the way, has suddenly lost its sense of humor and reportedly pulled the Bugatti clip from its own site and Hulu. <span style=\"color: #ff0000; font-family: Arial;\">UPDATE: <\/span>Kentucky Derby winner Mine That Bird stopped by on Thursday night in a mink Snuggie to watch some restricted NFL footage. Price tag: $4.8 million. Ca-ching! <span style=\"color: #ff0000; font-family: Arial;\">UPDATE:<\/span> The Veyron Mouse was loaned to the show by the Petersen Museum.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Posted by T.L.
