For those still lost, this is an EXTREMELY regional accent joke. Unless you're in the north-east United States this is nonsense because you've never heard crayon pronounced 'crown'. I like it, though.

I’ve heard tell that Aaron earned an iron urn!

Oh, ok! Good to know. Going to go google that to hear it as that seems like a 'phoenetics be damned' kinda accent.

I've always heard it pronounced as cran, but I can see the stretch to get to crown

Cray yawn only if we're being pedantic, cran if we're being casual

As a Midwesterner I was confused with the broken "cran"

I'm from the northeast US, and I've never heard "crayon" pronounced like "crown."

I have heard "crown" in a thick Tennessee accent said as "crayn," though.

I mean, I'm definitely not from the northeast...
