Conan O’Brien did little to manage expectations as he kicked off Sunday evening’s “30 Rock” reunion, a one-night-only benefit at Radio City Music Hall to celebrate the beloved sitcom’s 20th anniversary.

“Welcome to the greatest night in the history of entertainment!” he said from the stage to raucous applause. “I’m Conan O’Brien, and I’m known to exaggerate.”

His comments didn’t seem hyperbolic to the 5,000 rowdy fans in the audience, who spent a pretty penny and braved a rainstorm for a chance to witness the live, never-to-be-televised event. Cheers from the crowd were near-deafening as O’Brien introduced the cast — Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, Tracy Morgan and Jane Krakowski — and they kept up the enthusiasm for surprise guests like Jon Hamm, Tom Hanks, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Will Forte and Brian Williams.
