The most famous four-day-old mascot in the history of sports made a special appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Thursday.

The Philadelphia Flyers new mascot, who went viral on Monday (his unofficial birthday) stopped by Fallon's show seemingly just to startle comedian Ricky Gervais.

In the show's opening, Gervais and Fallon are backstage dancing to Boyz II Men's "Motownphilly." Gritty crashes the party and is soon accosted by Gervais with Fallon playing peacemaker.

All was well after the dustup, however, as Gervais tweeted a selfie of the trio.

Earlier in the day, Gritty tweeted that he made a "quick business trip" via helicopter but was purposefully cryptic.

But the brand new big orange guy couldn't hide his admiration for Fallon very long, tweeting a nice note to the host just as the show aired.
