This reminds me of the time Paul McCartney performed at the White House and was given an award by Barack Obama.
At one point, he jokingly said he was a little nervous about the next song possibly causing trouble. Everyone then laughed as they recognized the intro to "Michelle."
Afterwards he said, "I was afraid I might be the first guy to show up at the White House and get punched by the president!"
I realize now, after reading people's comments here, that he probably went out of his way to use the American term "guy" rather than a more colloquially British term.
