Al Roker Pooped His Pants

And in the White House!!! Yes, in an interview with Dateline this week, Al Roker revealed that a month after his gastric bypass surgery, he was working an event at the White House when he felt the urge to let out a little fart. He thought it was just a fart and he would let it out in the hall since no one was around. But Al's little fart came with a bonus! He felt some liquid oozing in his tightie whities and he immediately knew that he had pooped his pants. Here is an excerpt from the interview with the video below:

Al: "When you've had a bypass and your bowels have been reconstructed, you think you're pretty safe and I probably went off and ate something I wasn't supposed to. And as I'm walking to the press room, [I'm thinking] well, I gotta pass a little gas here. I'm walking by myself. Who's gonna know? Only a little something extra came out."

Dr. Nancy: "You pooped in your pants."

Al: "I pooped my pants. Not horribly, but enough that I knew..."

Dr. Nancy: "Which is a common side effect of the surgery..."

Al: "Exactly. And so, I was panicking, so I got to the restroom in the press room, threw out the underwear and went commando."
