Joe Biden to ‘Dear Evan Hansen’ Understudies: ‘I Was One For Eight Years!’

Our former vice president has an awesome sense of humor, and showed it over the weekend when he took his family to the Broadway smash Dear Evan Hansen. He also apparently ran into Amy Schumer backstage.

He shook hands with all the understudies, reports Page Six, and reportedly joked, “I know what it’s like to be the understudy — I was one for eight years!”

“He chatted with an 88-year-old diner and said she looked beautiful, which made her day,” a source spoke of he and his family’s lunch at Tavern on the Green. “Her son picked up the Bidens’ check and wrote him a thank-you note.”
