Between last minute replacements, controversial winners, and a member of the Wu Tang Clan interrupting the woman who sang "Sunny Came Home", it was a truly wild night. However, those moments pale in comparison to the moment during Bob Dylan's performance when a man rushed the stage with Soy Bomb written on his chest and showed the world his bizarre dance moves for 37 seconds. That man was a performance artist/ comedian named Michael Portnoy, and this is the story of how he and Bob Dylan ended up forever linked together in the world of pop culture.
