Anchors eating sandwiches in the shadows and heckling each other on live TV? It was chaos at the top of the hour at 9 on Thursday. CHAOS!

The TODAY's Take anchors were starting their chat when Al spotted Carson Daly lingering in the shadows, just enjoying an early lunch.

Then, Al got up to do his Memorial Day weather report. Would it be rain? Sun? Hail? Kathie Lee Gifford, who let out an audible yawn off camera, apparently could not care less. 

"Am I boring you?" Al shouted at his peanut gallery of hecklers.

Al and Savannah had a good laugh at KLG's near-mishap.

As KLG made her exit, Carson snuck behind a lamp to strike a classic Rokering pose. (Remember Rokering? That was amazing. Is it Dalying now?)

We would like to emphasize there was a major morning new show happening while all this was going on. 

And we should also point out: Many of these anchors are aren't on the air at 9. So why were they hanging around the studio?

They had a good excuse: A TODAY selfie to be revealed at a later date was in the works.
