If you invite Hoda to one of your parties, don't take it personally if she makes a hasty exit.

Apparently her nickname in college was "The Nomad," as she's known for showing up randomly at parties… and then beating a hasty retreat. She even pulled this trick on Kathie Lee over the weekend. Hoda joked that she pretended she had to use the bathroom and snuck out instead.
