Does being an an eight-time Olympic gold medalist make you funny? Man, I hope so.

Aquaman Michael Phelps has signed on to be the host of the season premiere of Saturday Night Live on Sept. 13.  Lil Wayne will be the musical guest. 

Mike isn't the first sports figure to take the SNL stage, as LeBron James, Peyton Manning, and former Olympians Johnny Mosley and Nancy Kerrigan have also taken on the famous sketch comedy ensemble.

It will definitely be interesting.

Do you think Michael will make a splash or will he be more like, um, a fish out of water?
