Two pieces of human excrement turned up in the aisle near the Clintons at the Shubert Theater, the Page Six report states.

Staff at the Shubert Theater quickly cleaned up the mess and the mother-daughter duo stayed for the show's second act, according to the report.

The poo didn't seem to be a protest, but it's unclear whether it was an accident or the work of a serial pooper, according to the report.

Anonymous people quoted in the report gave wildly different accounts. One called it a "rather sad" incident involving an elderly person, while another said a theater staffer "said that it was actually the fourth time it had happened," according to the report.
