(via The Hollywood Reporter)

Turns out George Carlin isn’t the only comedy legend to get a named after them this week.

Fox Studios made sure that the street that runs by the sound stage where Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein was shot at bares the Brooks’ name and had a ceremony earlier this week.

So, if you’re on the Fox lot here in LA, which is much harder to get to than George Carlin Way, make sure to go by Mel Brooks Blvd and try to recreate that big chase scene through the studio backlot from Blazing Saddles.
