Lil John made a surprise appearance at the DNC delegate roll call for Georgia, and the results were hysterical

Lil Jon at the DNC: not on our bingo card!

During Tuesday night’s delegate roll call for the Democratic National Convention, the state of Georgia announced its votes for Kamala Harris in the most entertaining way possible.

As it was Georgia’s turn to cast its delegate for Harris, rapper Lil Jon made his way down the stairs at the United Center in Chicago to the tune of his DJ Snake hit “Turn Down for What” before the tune switched to his legendary song “Get Low.”

If you’re wondering if Lil Jon somehow turned the line “To the window, to the wall!” into “VP Harris, Governor Walz!” for the DNC crowd, the answer is a resounding yes.

Steve Kerr brings Steph Curry’s ‘Night Night’ celebration to Democratic National Convention

The Golden State Warriors head coach brought Steph Curry’s “night night” celebration to the Democratic National Convention.

Coming off a run to the Olympic gold medal in Paris with Team USA’s men’s basketball, Steve Kerr made the trip back to where he shared the court with Michael Jordan — the United Center. Yet, his trip to the home of the Chicago Bulls wasn’t for basketball, but for the Democratic National Convention.

Steve Kerr was one of the speakers on Monday in Chicago who gave a speech at the Democratic National Convention. Along with publicly endorsing, Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz, Steve Kerr finished his speech with a shoutout to the Golden State Warriors point guard.

Kerr spoke about telling former President and 2024 Republican candidate Donald Trump “night night.” To end his speech, Kerr reenacted Curry’s signature night night celebration.

In the words of the great Steph Curry, we can tell Donald Trump … night night.

Stephen Colbert tosses baseballs, beers and hot dogs to fans at Wrigley Field while in Chicago for DNC

Stephen Colbert using a fishing reel to pass beers down to the street is not a typical Friday afternoon at the ballpark sight.

The spotlight is about to be on the city of Chicago next week as the 2024 Democratic National Convention is set to be held at the United Center from Monday to Thursday.

With media flocking to Chicago ahead of the event, Stephen Colbert caught a game at Wrigley Field as the Cubs faced off against the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday. While in the concourse, the host of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on CBS made his presence known to fans outside the stadium by bearing gifts.

Colbert first tossed down baseballs to a few lucky fans, ultimately dumping an entire bag.

That wasn’t all, however, as he also used a fishing reel (?) to precariously send beers and hot dogs down to the fans below.

Now there’s something you don’t see on your typical Friday afternoon at the ballpark.
