At this point, it seems as if Aaron Rodgers has done a full tour of New York since joining the New York Jets. From playoff games to a Taylor Swift concert, Rodgers has seen all New York has to offer, right? Wrong, apparently!
On Sunday, the 2023 Tony Awards were being held in United Palace in New York. The annual event celebrates the talent and accolades of the Broadway and theater community as a whole, featuring incredible performances from the year’s nominees as well. While a fun celebration of the theater community, it’s not nearly as high-profile of an event as the Oscars or the Met Gala.
And yet, during the broadcast of the event, fans spotted Rodgers sitting in the crowd looking absolutely, hilariously befuddled.

Yes, both Rodgers and C.J. Uzomah were in attendance at the Tony Awards. And they cleaned up quite well!

Still, no one expected Rodgers — of all people — to be attending the Tony Awards! The internet had so many jokes after the broadcast showed Rodgers looking so out of place at the Tony Awards.
Aaron Rogers sitting in the third row of the Tony Awards is the equivalent of me sitting in the third row at the ESPYS. pic.twitter.com/1AnPj0h71h

I just saw Aaron Rodgers in the audience at the Tony Awards. My man has accepted every invite he got to a major NY event. 😆

Aaron Rodgers has no idea why he’s at the Tony Awards, but if you’re gonna be a celebrity New Yorker, why not go whole hog? pic.twitter.com/6cHQPs8gmX

Why is Aaron Rodgers at the Tony Awards? Is he just trying to fit all in New York/New Jersey into a month?

Aaron Rodgers is doing New York side quest at this point. What’s that man doing in the #TonyAwards audience?? 😂

i get that the jets are trying super hard to integrate aaron rodgers into new york culture but tbh i think inviting him to the tonys might’ve been a step too far
