President Obama Appears on Popular Cuban Comedy Show

During his historic trip to Cuba, President Barack Obama made an appearance on "Vivir del Cuento," one of the most popular shows in the country.

Luis Silvia, known for his character Panfilo, posted the clip on Facebook on Wednesday. It shows Panfilo playing dominoes with his neighbors, when President Obama walks in.

The post comes following a previous montage on the show featuring a phone call with President Obama, which had many people doubting whether it was real.

Panfilo stars in the weekly television show in Cuba, which is estimated to be seen by two-thirds of the country, according to Variety. He has a running sketch in which he attempts to call the American president.

President Obama was in Cuba Sunday through Tuesday.
