Weeks after a Pennsylvania high school senior took a cardboard cutout of Danny DeVito to prom, the actor took the teenager out on a date, too — sort of.
On May 11, 17-year-old Allison Cross attended the Carlisle High School prom, bringing along a lifesize cardboard cutout of the 73-year-old It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia star.
Her unconventional date went viral and made national news, eventually catching the attention of the real Danny DeVito, who decided to get in on the joke.

Closs and her famous two-dimensional date joined other Carlisle High School seniors Friday for prom. Closs purchased the cutout of DeVito online along with a scooter she used to move the figure with.
