Conan teases his Cuba special with one amazing photo
Last weekend, Conan O'Brien and his camera crew spent four days in Havana, becoming the first late-night show to visit Cuba since Jack Paar's Tonight Show in 1959. It was a "fantastic experience," he said on Tuesday night's Conan, and "the people are absolutely amazing." He showed a photo of him dancing in what appears to be a Carnival parade, but said if you want to know more about this trip, you'll have to watch his "Conan in Cuba" special on March 4. What he puts in his special might determine whether other comedy shows are allowed in Cuba anytime soon. —Peter Weber
