Typically, Billy Eichner takes to the streets of NYC to scream in innocent people's faces, but on Thursday night David Letterman fell victim to one of the Funny or Die star's favorite games. 

"On this game, we do have a time limit. We're going to put 30 seconds on the clock…this game is a game called ‘Celebrity Child or Kentucky Derby Winner.' I'm going to give you a name—these are all real names—you have to tell me if it's the name of a celebrity's child or the name of a real Kentucky Derby winner," Eichner explained during his appearance last night on The Late Show with David Letterman. 

After Letterman asked for clarification as to whether the two were talking about child actors or celebrity offspring, Eichner said "So what they named their child or what someone named a horse. In the Kentucky Derby." 

Hmm...sounds even sillier when you put it like that. 

"Now, for every one that you get right, you are going to win a dollar," the 35-year-old comedian shared before adding, "And I'm so glad I'm giving this money to someone who needs it, Dave."

Then it was time to put 30 seconds on the clock, before the funnyman started firing off a series of mystery monikers (spoiler alert: Letterman really enjoyed being screamed at). 

As for the names in question? 

"Pilot Inspector, War Admiral, Blue Angel, Winter Green, Dusk Commander, Diva Muffin, Thunder Gulch, Moxy Crime Fighter, Flying Ebony, Yer Majesty, Blue Bell Madonna, Pink Star, Little Pixie Frou Frou and Darby Rudd" (for the record, the latter is Paul Rudd's child). 

We won't tell you the answers so you can play along as you watch the hilarious clip, but we will share Letterman's comical reaction to the game: "The best part of that is when you scream at me. That was the absolute, most fun of the little quiz…I just like being yelled at!" 

WAY TO GO, DAVE!
