As the 72nd Emmys 2020 event wrapped up on Sunday night, Jimmy Kimmel, the American TV host, surprised the viewers with a post event celebration.
Kimmel, who was hosting the Emmys show, invited his guests to the virtual post-ceremony celebration by unexpectedly dropping the Zoom ID.
Soon after that, it wasn’t just the luminaries and TV’s bigwigs heading to the virtual meeting room but also hordes of strangers who rushed to enter on Zoom meeting ID 4599567155.
However, some crazy fans also managed to guess the right code as initially it required a password, but they were barred from entering as meeting maxed out at 100 people.
Frenzied viewers took to Twitter and expressed their elation over how they gained access to the show.
“Let me tell you the story of my 2 minutes in the #Emmys after party zoom,” said one person who managed to enter. Other, less fortunate fans were left quite disheartened.
One user said: “Looks like I’m not getting into the sad zoom afterparty #emmys.”
Another wrote:: “that zoom key *was* legit, but it reached the max participants already. anyone get in? the password was baba booey #Emmys.”
