Chris Ferguson taped his segment for Thursday's show yesterday afternoon. His tweet:
Standing by to tape Letterman in a half-hour. Airs on Thurs.
And a photo of him meeting fans outside the theater:

"Fans" was NASA's description for the photo. I'm sure Chris Ferguson knew exactly why they were there.

OK, I'll bite. Sorry if I'm missing the obvious but who is it and why, as I'm gathering, is their intention less than honorable?

Not saying it's the same person - but a Ferguson SP was on eBay the day after his taping, with an asking opening bid of $125.
