Move over, Kobe, there’s a new sheriff in town! Funnyman Will Ferrell made a random appearance at an L.A. Lakers game last night.

While Kobe Bryant took a back seat on the court (he only netted four points in the game — along with nine assists), it was Ferrell who was winning over the crowd.

According to TMZ (and a slew of Twitter users), funnyman Ferrell posed as a seat usher named Ted Vagina during the team’s home game against the Phoenix Suns.

Complete with name tag and usher’s uniform, the sly Super Bowl comedian and his very well-groomed moustache worked the floor as the usher and made sure no ball lovin’ pranksters caused any shenanigans.

Will Ferrell celebrates his birthday at the Staples Center with the Lakers.

Unfortunately, there must have been one disturbance. During the team’s home game, Ferrell was spotted putting basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal in an arm bar and escorted him out.

It looks like the Staples Center staff was in on the joke because it was actually Ferrell’s birthday. The Anchorman star was spotted with a lanyard around his neck that read “Happy Birthday Will!”
