The high point of the roast came after Hanks was presented with a reminder of his 'Bosom Buddy' days, composed of a dress, a wig, pink satin stilettos and of course the traditional Pudding sequined bra.

"I'd like to be sincere but then I'd look like an even bigger idiot," said Hanks with a grin. "Still...not bad for someone who didn't finish Sacramento State."
As a finale, Hanks called Harvard "a good community college with a parking problem that needs to be solved," and flung his dress, wig, shoes and bra into the audience. The crowd roared and strained for Hanks' discarded clothes like fans seated in left field, trying to catch a pop...
During the press conference, Hanks described the award as both "an amazing kind of thrill" and "an odd pleasure, but a pleasure still."
