Jimmy Fallon shares heartwarming story about his special birthday present

The presenter told the studio audience about his "Pee-wee Herman breakfast" that Nancy Juvonen prepared for him, "It was the pancake with two fried eggs for eyes and the bacon for lips and it was just so cool. My mom used to make me that for me, it was the best."

Fallon, who was moved by the sentimental gift from his wife continued to share, "They bring me into this other room and this thing's wrapped up, and it's a giant big thing, so I open it up."

The popular talk show host then shared the backstory about the gift, "My dad had a jukebox when I was growing up. He got it for free from the VFW. It was a broken jukebox, and he goes, 'Hey, can I take that and try to fix it?' My dad fixed machines, so he fixed this jukebox, and so we had a jukebox in our house with 45’s and doo-wop music but all sorts of music."

Fallon continued, "And then it just broke, because it was old, it was from the 50s or whatever. And then we got rid of it, I think we gave it for free."

Jimmy Fallon's friend found his broken jukebox

Jimmy Fallon revealed that a friend of his found it at an electronics store last year, and reached out to Nancy Juvonen.  

"He called Nancy and goes, 'If you want to get Jimmy a cool gift, this person has no idea it's Jimmy's jukebox.' She bought the jukebox and refurbished it so it plays Bluetooth," he continued.

Fallon then held the photo of the item, for the audience to see, "This is the exact jukebox," reported TMZ.



 

"It's got my dad’s handwriting ... I remember him writing it and putting it in there, this is the same one I grew up with, it's crazy,” the talk show host added.

Fallon’s crew celebrated his 50th birthday by throwing 50 cupcakes at him, including the last one from singer Demi Lovato.
