32. I have a crazy video of him at a Dead show from the late 70s early 80s

It was a midnight show with Franken and some other SNL stars at the Filmore with Bill Graham- Pretty sure Franken is out of his mind in that vid. lol

I have thought about posting it on YT, but I don't want to hurt his chances for a potential POTUS run. But I'm sure others out there have it in their arsenal of tapes to hit him if he decided to run.

*Update*

It was a Winterland show for New Years 78- A local TV station recorded the pre-concert festivities and Franken was one of the announcers during the event.

The Blues Brothers opened for the Grateful Dead that night.
