Anyone catch this? I did, and it was pretty funny. They brought Big Bird out to announce Caroll Spinney being awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award. Big Bird was like "Yay Caroll Spinney! Go Caroll Spinney!!!", then he's like "wait a minute, who's Caroll Spinney?". So they tell Big Bird about how for the past 37 years, he's been the puppeteer for an 8 foot bird, hinting him about who Caroll is, and he's like "an 8 foot bird puppet?! What'll they think of next?".

Pretty funny stuff! Pretty funny stuff.
