'Today' his day

When Tammy Weisenberger came from Illinois to see the "Today" show, she knew she'd have to elbow her way to get close to her favorite TV personality.

No, not Matt Lauer, Meredith Vieira or even Al Roker.

Weisenberger wanted to meet the NBC show's most famous fan, Lenny Boyette, a 64-year-old Bronx man who for the past 12 years has made it his job to join the "Today" anchors on camera almost every day, albeit from behind a fence.

"I see Lenny on my TV every day. I knew he would be here. He's just as much a part of the 'Today' show as everyone else," Weisenberger gushed after Boyette graciously agreed to take a picture with her on a recent day.
