Dana Carvey's Unplanned Ice Cream Gag on 'SNL' Goes Viral

The comedian surprised Maya Rudolph during a live sketch by smashing an ice cream cone in her face, a moment that was entirely improvised.

Dana Carvey revealed on the Superfly podcast that the ice cream incident with Maya Rudolph during the 'SNL' cold open was not scripted.
Carvey, portraying Joe Biden, spontaneously decided to use the prop in a comedic gesture during the live show.
The sketch involved Carvey's Biden crashing a viewing party with Maya Rudolph as Kamala Harris and Andy Samberg as Doug Emhoff.
Maya Rudolph appeared surprised but managed to stay in character, smiling and suppressing laughter after the unexpected moment.
Carvey emphasized that his portrayal of Biden is meant to be humorous and exaggerated, not disrespectful.
