The president appeared in a pre-taped segment that Colbert initially pretended was live.
Of course I did, Obama said after Colbert asked if he had watched the Super Bowl.
After every Super Bowl, I call the winning team to congratulate them.

And sometimes I call the losing team, especially if I bet on them.
After Colbert told him gambling was illegal, Obama joked, Im the president.
I hereby pardon myself.
But despite filming the segment last week, Obama still knew who won the Super Bowl.
Of course I do.
It was the Denver Broncos, Obama said after being questioned by Colbert.
The Broncos did indeed win Super Bowl 50 by a score of 24-10 over the Carolina Panthers.
How did Obama know the outcome beyond merely tapingtwoversions of his answer?
Thats the plot ofNational Treasure 3.
National Treasurefans will note there isnt aNational Treasure 3, but Obama had an answer for that too.
Thats what you think.
There will be, he said of the threequel.
The script is on the back of the Declaration of Independence.
But not to worry: he blamed Colbert.
