But this time, it’s something entirely different that you might have missed if you had blinked for even a split second.

Apparently, behind the extremely talented and hard-working orchestra, there was a man stuffing his dinner, which to many looked like noodles, into his stomach.

To his credit, he didn’t let anything spoil his dinner.

Check this out:

Users really liked the find on X, with one commenting: “This is a great place.”

Another shared: “Great place to watch. Right in the middle of the action.”

A third posted: “This could be the highlight of the evening!”

One slightly confused viewer shared: “I thought for a split second it was Dave Grohl.”

Whether planned or not, it was a great location in the middle of a graduation ceremony that featured several other notable incidents.

A slippery carpet made some social media users smile, while others took a while to realize that the oddly shaped stage was actually a world map.

However, this was nothing compared to the praise that BBC commentator David Cotter received from viewers, as he provided endless jokes at the beginning of the ceremony.

Users praised the 51-year-old, with one saying: “@MrAndrewCotter, the best part of the closing ceremony is Mr. Andrew Cotter’s commentary. I love his voice and his witty sayings, lol.”

Another shared: “Andrew Cotter is a national treasure, he is simply the pinnacle of commentary with his little one-liners.”

A third said: “Andrew Cotter. Simply the gold medal of Olympic commentary.”
