We started the birthday banner in 1999. I can't even remember who created it... Nikki? It was over six feet long on continuous feed computer paper (find THAT anymore! LOL) We then put together a list - we had one person on the west coast, one on the east coast and me in the middle, who coordinated the mailing of the banner from person to person. I've forgotten how many people it touched -- maybe 30? but it went from coast to coast and two places in Canada. :) We presented it to him, late, in Tempe on 1/28/2000. He was totally blown away and told us he was going to hang it up in the "blue room" with his memorabilia. (See my Tempe story on our Sightings page on the LGF site.) It brought the fans together, he loved it, and I must mention that our dear Bonnie was the ONLY one to think of leaving her lipstick print on it!! :) -- Leif Garrett Fans
