Sean has had a deep and abiding friendship with Team Starkid since he sat in for Dylan Saunders at the Starkid panel at C2E2 last year. Starkids Darren Criss and Joey Richter were also presenters last night, and did a little Turtle geeking while introducing the Turtle cast.

Darren even wore the TMNT pajama pants given to him by Sean backstage! See the visual proof below! :-D
