In 2019, a Pennsylvania student took a cardboard cutout of this beloved 4-foot-10 icon to prom as his date — so the actor retaliated by posing with a cardboard cutout of the student inside the bar on his TV show's set.
The full story
After Allentown student Jacob Staudenmaier took a cardboard Danny DeVito to prom in 2019, DeVito posed with a cardboard cutout of Jacob at Paddy's Pub — the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia set — in a photo shared by co-star Rob McElhenney.
The clues we handed out
— A co-star posted the photo with a caption about him hearing of the gesture. The bar in the shot was the show's own set.

— He was Matilda's terrible father and Batman's Penguin.
— In 'Twins,' his twin brother was Arnold Schwarzenegger.
— Initials: D.D.
