Where in the World is Matt Lauer, you ask?

New Jersey, we answer.

As part of a sweeps get-out-of-the-studio series called “Today Takes On…”, Matt, Ann, Al and Natalie, and some unlucky NBC pages, took on the Princeton crew. After some stretching, jumping jacks and instructions, the “Today” team hit the water and crossed the finish line ahead of the blindfolded, one-armed Princeton team.

Meanwhile, “GMA’s” Josh Elliott and Sam Champion have been Tweeting all day as they make their way to Chicago where they’ll ride a new rollercoaster at Six Flags Great America. The segment is expected to air later next week.
