Gary from Chicago got more time at the Oscars than 98% of all award winners tonight and you know what? That's okay.
Gary from Chicago -- now a household name -- started as a member of the tour group that Jimmy Kimmel brought into the ceremony as part of a prank. Gary confidently waltzed into the theater unsurprised, wearing shorts and holding his fiancée Vicky's purse.

"I feel like you’re ignoring all the white celebrities," Kimmel said to Gary toward the end of the bit.
"Yes, I am," replied Gary.
Suffice it to say, Gary gave hands down the best performance of the night.
Dog Gary took a selfie with the Oscar and Mahershala wasn't even in it 😂😂😂😂
