In another post on Monday, Gatto said he will be committing to his tour, set to last from January to May.
"When I committed to my upcoming series of shows starting in the Midwest this week, I obviously had no idea what life would look like at this moment," Gatto wrote. "Regardless, we can all use some laughter and kindness right now, and I’ll therefore be keeping all of my dates. Excited to share some laughs with the fans in Iowa this weekend and all over the country in the weeks and months to come."

"Impractical Jokers" featured Gatto alongside his three high school friends, James Murray, Sal Vulcano and Brian "Q" Quinn. The four would compete with one another to complete public dares, and the "big loser" of each episode would be subject to a "punishment" concocted by the episode's winners.
