Bon Jovi crashes FDU's 2017 commencement
A notable New Jersey native crashed Fairleigh Dickinson University's 74th commencement Tuesday morning -- Jon Bon Jovi.

At this year's ceremony at Metlife Stadium in East Rutherford, Bon Jovi shared some thoughts and a song with the graduating class and audience.

FDU's Class of 2017 won a contest held by MTV where Bon Jovi would "crash" the winning school's commencement.

Nearly 3,200 students from 54 countries and 40 states received degrees from the university, and an honorary degree was also conferred upon...(the widow of an) FDU alumnus and trustee...who lost her husband in the PanAm Flight 103 bombing in 1988 (and who) established a scholarship in his name...

The winning college just happened to be in New Jersey? Exactly how fair was this MTV contest?

Irony alert: Dave just happens to be the band's remaining New Jersey resident!
