As Hamm revealed to Meyers, he and Amy Poehler once threw an Emmy losers party.

We hadnt lost yet.

We were nominated, but we were so certain we were going to lose.

We called it the Losers Lounge.

According to Hamm, the rationale was simple.

Theres more losers than winners, they should get a party too, he said.

Why shouldnt it be our party?

Because we could always get in.

Dont even bring it, Hamm said of the Emmys.

We dont want to see it.
