Subject: M's report for Caesar's Tahoe - Aug 22

Posted the following on the CMC board last night . . .thought folks here might be interested as well . . .

Forgive the spelling errors. Not one of my strong points. *G*

Forgive the bad language . . . but we are all adults here, right?

If the formatting comes out screwy, check the post out on the CMC board and later on Colin's site in the Live Appearances section.




CAESAR’S TAHOE – IMPROV ALL-STARS

Friday, August 22

Players – Laura Hall, Linda Taylor, Julie Larson, Sean Masterson, Chip Esten, Brad Sherwood, Kathy Kinney, and Colin Mochrie.


Curtain went up and Laura and Linda were already onstage playing music, loud rock, and the crowd started to clap along with music. I had front row seats, slightly House Left, and the angle that I had was excellent.

There was a voice over, and it took a moment to realize that Colin was doing the intros for everyone from the wings. Looking into the wings I could see him with the cast, kind of pacing back and forth, pumping up everyone with the intros and slaps on the back. Everyone was psyched, bouncing all over the place and Colin was kind of cheerleading them on. The sound level was VERY loud and with the music playing it was hard to understand all of the intros. I’m sure folks further back in the house could hear all of what Colin was saying . . . but I was RIGHT in front of house speakers, and with the music playing and the audience cheering and clapping, it was all kind of distorted for me. I *do* remember that Colin started off with a very enthusiastic “Hello Caesar’s Tahoe!!! Are you ready for some IMPROV????” And I can’t remember which night it was, probably Saturday night, but Colin introduced Julie Larson as “head writer for The Drew Carey Show, an incredible improv talent, and an ass you can bounce a quarter off of – Julie Larson!!!” Julie LOVED this intro, clapping Colin on the shoulder, doubling over with laughter before running onstage. Again, the intros were great . . .but I didn’t get many of them down on paper.

Colin’s order of introductions: Laura Hall (already onstage) , Linda Taylor (already onstage), Julie Larson, Sean Masterson, Chip Esten, Brad Sherwood, Kathy Kinney and then himself.

When Colin introduced himself on the second night, he said, "What can I saw about this next guy? An improv genius . . . Canada's national pride . . . and has a great pair of legs -- Colin Mochrie!” His intro for himself on the first night was similar I didn’t get it down, but he did refer to himself as the “best improviser in the world . . . “ and followed it with a quote similar to the “great pair of legs” line.

Both nights, as he said his own name, he came on, with a big grin and waving and when the crowd went wild (both nights) he sheepishly kind of shrugged, hid the mic behind his back and pretended like he didn’t know who was doing the intros. After taking his own bow, he dropped the microphone off on Laura’s piano and then joined the cast.

On the first night, when the intros began, it took a bit to fully understand that it was Colin who was doing the intros, due to the fact that his voice was VERY hoarse. It was almost unrecognizable, and I probably wouldn’t have recognized his voice at all if I hadn’t seen him the wings with the mic in hand. When he came on and started playing Questions Only, his voice sounded VERY hoarse and tired. Mid-show it got much better and by the second night he was back vocally. But it was odd . . . he just sounded so un-Colin.

Not sure why it really matters but here it goes . . .The wardrobe!!
Laura and Linda – uhh . . .didn’t notice.
Julie – white top, blue jeans
Sean – red shirt and blue jeans
Chip – black slacks, blue shirt
Brad – yellow shirt (the one he ALWAYS wears) and blue jeans
Kathy – green silky casual jumpsuit . . . she looked GREAT!
Colin – black slacks with black button down shirt and black shoes (Ya know, the man REALLY does look good in black.)

After Colin came on, he slapped hands, high fived the rest of the cast and Kathy stepped downstage to explain the game of Sentences. Brad and Chip started handing out slips of paper and pens. As Brad came by my table, he recognized me, and said “Hi, again.” He also saw my pad and pen for taking notes and he said, “Wow, you came prepared.” I said, “Yeah, something like that.” He laughed and moved on after leaving me some pens and paper for my table.

Kathy then moved into introducing Questions Only. When she stepped down and started to talk, the audience gave her a round of applause.

QUESTIONS ONLY:
Kathy asked for a made up name of a store and “Men’s World” was chosen. The cast took that to mean a men’s club, like a strip club. Not sure who started off, but Sean was a young man whose mom (Kathy??) had brought him to see his first show at a strip club. Sean was buzzed out and when Colin stepped down he got a BIG round of cheers and applause. (He acknowledged the audience with a nod and a smile . . .and then moved directly into playing the game.) Kathy began by asking Colin when she was gonna get her $5 lap dance. The crowd cheered in anticipation of Colin lap dancing and Colin replied with, “Do you really want to see it?” (The crowd cheered again.) Kathy replied with, “Didn’t I just give you $5 for a dance?” And the banter went back and forth, kind of teasing, and then Laura started to play some music and Colin finally went into a dance. An exotic dance . . . wonderfully odd and VERY Colin-esque. Again, it was a ‘joke dance’ in the middle of an improv scene, but nevertheless, you can tell that Colin is a good dancer. Not sure, but I think the game ended with Colin’s dancing. Might have gone on longer but I can’t remember.

SONG STYLES:
Colin asked for a volunteer from the audience and pulled Pat from the front row. He helped her up onstage (she was stepping on her seat to the edge of the stage) and as he took her hand, she stumbled a little. Colin caught her and said, “Uh oh. Lawsuit.” She laughed and told him she was a lawyer. He laughed back and said, “Really?” He interviewed her and we found out that her favorite author is Thomas Wolfe. And that her husband was a policy official but she couldn’t talk about what did for a living. (Colin: “Uhh. Okay.”) Colin asked her for her dream vacation that she always wanted to take and Pat said she really wanted to go to Indonesia. It was cute . . . but at this point, she was REALLY confused as to why Colin was asking her all these questions. (“You just want me to talk about myself?”) (Yeah, I guess if you didn’t know the show or the games that it might be confusing.) Colin told her that Brad and Chip were gonna sing to her and then Colin then asked the audience for two professions – and Dog Walker and Astronaut were chosen. Colin told Chip and Brad that they were to sing to Pat with those professions. He said, “so, here we are . . . two good looking guys, a beautiful woman . . . how about a nice romantic love song . . .in the style of Eminen.” During the loud rap song (which WAS oddly romantic *G*), Brad and Chip vied for Pat’s attention. It became a rap “battle song” a la Eminen’s movie “8Mile” – Chip was an Astronaut while Brad was ONLY a Dog Walker, and both thought that they could be a better partner/boyfriend to Pat than the other. It was a great song and Pat looked like she enjoyed it.

STYLES:
Colin and Kathy played and Brad called. Brad asked for a made up holiday and a rather enthusiastic “Cheese Day” was chosen. The game started with Colin was carving a likeness of Kathy in the cheese, who was posing mixing something (cheese, I suppose) in a bowl.
Brad called for a type of movie and chose Kung Fu. Can’t remember much of it but I believe it was Colin who declared that “Gouda was the cause of my father’s death and I must go on a journey to avenge his death.” I believe that Laura even might have provided some kind of funky background kung fu music (hah!) for the scene.
Next style was Broadway Musical during which Colin did a big production dance number while Kathy sang about cheese. (Uhh, yeah . . .Colin can dance.)
Next style chosen was Romance and the only thing I remember from it was that Colin declared love for Kathy by saying “I would walk on broken glass for you . . .just cuz I can.”
Style of Horror – No notes taken. I think I remember Kathy doing a high-pitched scream.
Style of Shakespeare – No notes taken. But Kathy is ALWAYS very good in this style.
Style of Kabuki – Colin does a GREAT geisha girl . . . complete with a tiny voice, a meek glance over his hands to face. VERY cute.

It was at this point, that Brad just got silly calling out styles, including: Shakespeare Kabuki, Porn and finally Kabuki Porn. Kabuki Porn was hysterical but Brad inadvertently ruined a final laugh by calling “Freeze” too soon. Colin and Kathy stopped awkwardly mid-joke and Brad kind of stumbled, and told them, “Go on” . . . but the moment was lost. After the game he shrugged an apology to Colin and Kathy. The playing was great . . . one of my favorite games, especially when the styles are more varied than the ones we always end up seeing.

MOVING PEOPLE:
Chip pulled 2 volunteers from the audience to move Sean and Julie. Scene chosen was a “tennis game”. This was a VERY funny playing of the game. Julie started off by saying that she was gonna go grab her racquet so that they could start their tennis match. Her mover had Julie just grab the racquet mysteriously from the air in front of her, and Julie said with a laugh, “Why, its right here! Floating in front of me!” Sean said, “Better let me grab the balls!” and, God bless him, if Sean’s mover didn’t just reach around and have Sean grab himself in the crotch. Funny, funny, funny.

The conflict of the scene was that Julie and Sean were having relationship problems so they would every now and then shout to each other “Meet me at the net!” and the movers would have to move them towards each other. As the game progressed, Julie and Sean would occasionally shout, “Meet me at the net, QUICK!” and the movers would try to move them to the net as quickly as possible . . . doing that funny walk that the players end up doing in this game. At one point, Sean said he was gonna show Julie his serve and the mover did a super fast serve using Sean’s arms and Julie tried (and failed) to return the serve. Sean showed her his super fast serve a number of times and Julie finally was able to return the serve. Again the scene was based on relationship problems between the two so at one meeting at the net, Sean’s mover grabbed Sean by the waist and thrust his hips into Julie’s pelvis. Julie said something like, “No, not here . . .wait til we get home.” All in all, one of the better playings I have ever seen of this game. Sean is especially good at it and both he and Julie seemed to have fun.

CELEBRITY IMPROV JEOPARDY:
Colin was Alex Trebek: “I know all the answers . . .cuz they are written down right here.”

Brad/Arturo – was Italian and he lived in Truckee where he packed fudge for a living.

Kathy/Elisma (??) – was from Wisconsin and was prone to long rambling answers about Wisconsin trivia, her 7 kids and the fact that she likes to knit. Colin/Alex interrupted her at one point, “How un-interesting!” and moved on to the next player who was . . .

Julie/Elma (??) – who “claimed” to be the youngest cocktail waitress in Caesar’s Tahoe but was actually probably about 90 years old. Colin/Alex – “The youngest? Really?” Julie/Elma – “Yes. The youngest.” Colin/Alex just rolled his eyes and moved on to . . .

Chip/Dayson – a professional skier who was involved in some competitions in Tahoe but got stoned and was now stuck here cuz he missed his ride home. During his intro with Colin/Alex he let it slip that he “knew” Brad/Arturo: “Dude, you can pack some fudge!!” And the gay jokes and banter between Chip/Dayson and Brad/Arturo began and ran throughout the game.

Colin/Alex began the game.

Foreign Cars – Mercedes
Brad/Arturo – “Who is Rick Dees daughter?” (beginning a LOOONG stream of Rick Dees jokes for the game.)

Latin American Countries – Uruguay
Chip/Dayson – “What might you say to the guy who packs fudge?”

Awesome Band names – Stryker
Julie, who had been quiet during the playing so far, looked down and suddenly declared, “How long has my breast been hanging out?” Sean and Chip both laughed hard and Chip even helped Julie to put her breast back into her blouse.

Types of Chemicals – LSD
Chip/Dayson – “Who is Rick Dees brother?”

At this point, the whole banter of gay jokes, which had been subtle throughout the introductions and playing took on a new intensity. It became obvious that Chip/Dayson and Brad/Arturo had spent some time packing fudge together in good old Truckee.

Chip/Dayson to Brad/Arturo – “You are gay!” (a play on Uruaguay)
Brad/Arturo to Chip/Dayson – “We are a Paraguay!”

The same old jokes that Brad and Chip have engaged in before at other shows . . .and still pretty damn funny.

Exotic Cars – Alfa Romera
Brad/Arturo – “What comes before Beta Romera?”

Small Fuzzy Things – Squirrells
(Colin REALLY liked this one .. . he just found it amusing. . . )
Kathy/Elisma – “What do we eat in a nice stew with carrots?”

Things On Top Of Other Things – Hats
Brad/Arturo – What is the name of a really bad Broadway musical?”

Types of Elements – Manganese
Brad/Arturo – “What is above your Mango toes?”

Colin/Alex was ready to send the game into the final round so he said, “At with the sound of the bell . . . “ (Laura chimed in with a VERY dull and meek bell) “ . . it’s obvious that its time for a new amplification system!!” Laura laughed and shrugged at him. Colin/Alex said it was ALSO now time for Final Jeopardy . . .

Okay . . .quick note here. Final topic was Foreign Foods. And I have no idea how to spell these things cuz I haven’t heard of most of them. It was funny, cuz it was obvious that the CAST hadn’t heard of most of them either. They kept asking Colin to repeat the clues, trying to understand.

Foreign Foods:
For Brad/Arturo: “BoiLoi” (??? – pronounced “boy loy”??) When Colin said it, Brad just looked at him blankly. In fact, everyone looked baffled. Colin repeated it. Pause. So, Colin just kept repeating it – “Boy loy. Boy loy. Boy loy. Boy loy.” Each time getting closer and closer to Brad and louder and louder. Brad/Arturo said, “No matter how many times you say it, I STILL don’t know what it is.” Not sure what he wagered but Brad/Arturo finally came up with “Who was the original leader of the Culture Club?”

For Kathy/Elisma: “Bolognaise” (??? something like that . . .) Sorry, can’t remember her answer. Probably cuz I was trying to figure out how the hell to spell the word in the first place.

For Julie/Elma: “Pad Thai” was chosen. No answer given by Julie cuz again, she was confused as to how her breasts kept falling out her blouse. Again, Chip to the rescue . . .

For Chip/Dayson – “Churiso” was chosen. Again . . . no one had any idea of what it was. So, Colin said it over and over again. “Churiso . . .churiso . . .churiso . . .churiso . . .” Like Brad/Arturo, Chip/Dayson came out with “No matter how many times you say it, I still don’t know what it is . . . .” He had no answer so Brad/Arturo was declared the winner.

Many of the laughs from this game came from the fact that the Final Jeopardy round was full of funny sounding words that Colin would just repeat over and over and over. Just seeing him do that, so that the others would have time to come up with an answer, was VERY funny. In actuality, there were no really funny answers given . . .but it was just a scene of Colin saying a word over and over til the word itself just sounded funny.

NEW CHOICE:
Brad called and Chip and Sean played.

Brad asked for a subject from an action movie and someone shouted out “phone booth” (thinking of the summer flick with Colin Farrell, I imagine.) Brad made fun of them for a bit and then moved on and accepted “fire” and “alien invaders”.

The scene started and right off Brad called New Choice to Chip. But he didn’t have the handheld mic and Chip didn’t hear him and therefore just kept going. There was a moment when the scene moved on and Brad frantically looked for the handheld mic that was on Laura’s piano. He found it pretty quickly.

The scene revolved around the fact that the two guys (who ended up being brothers, I believe) were anxious over the idea that the aliens had arrived and were setting fire to everything in town. They were trying to figure out ways to get rid of them--
Sean: “We could walk up and poke them in the eye.”
New choice.
Sean: “We could walk up and kick them in the nuts.”
New choice.
Sean: “We could force them to gamble so they loose all their money and then the little bastards would have to wash dishes in the kitchen.”

Sean later had a physical choice of a dance to do with (or to) the aliens and Brad kept making him do a New Choice for the dance and the final choice was to combine all the dances. Throughout the game, Brad would keep having Sean do the dances over and over. Sean is really good at this game and he has fun playing it. Brad of course, just likes to torture the players. I can’t remember much of Chip in this game cuz Sean was so on top of everything . . . Sean totally dominated the game.

SOUND EFFECTS:
Kathy and Brad pulled two folks pulled from the audience – Gino and Helen to provide sound effects for Colin (Gino) and Brad (Helen).

(Helen was actually seated next to me. When the cast started to look for audience members for this game, Kathy was in the process of pulling me up there but then Brad – thank god - pulled Helen onstage instead. After the show, as we were leaving the casino, Helen said that it was a hard game to play mostly due to the fact that she just couldn’t see the guys that well . . .that the players were positioned downstage so much and she was afraid to move to see what they were doing. But she confessed that she did have fun . . .)

Kathy (maybe Julie??) asked for a dangerous profession and “Port-a-Potty Cleaners” was chosen. She said, that it wasn’t necessarily a dangerous job, but that it was a gross job. Brad indicated that he thought it a dangerous job and Colin did too.

The game started and quickly escalated into TONS of fart jokes. Gino got a laugh when he did a sound and Colin turned it into a fart joke, so for the rest of the game Gino, when he had no idea of what sound to make would make a fart sound. It kind of brought the game down to the smut level that the guys try to avoid as a rule. But it happened. And actually, it was quite funny.

Brad said that he and Colin had quite a job ahead of them that day, that they had been called in to handle the “Teamster’s 5 Bean Chili Cookoff Finals.” Colin anticipated that they would be “knee deep in feces” and that they best put on their “poo retardant suits.” While getting dressed, either Helen or Gino made a SFX that sounded like a cat and Colin was amazed to find that a cat had made it inside his poo retardant suit. He “kicked” the cat away and continued getting dressed.

[SIDE NOTE: Hmmm . . .Colin kicks right footed. Does everything else left handed or with left side dominance. But he kicks right footed. I’ve noticed it on WL too . . . just interesting to me . . . most left handed people I know kick left footed. Hmmm . . . Okay . . . . back to your regularly scheduled Show Report.]

Colin and Brad decided to ride in their Poo Mobile. And somehow Colin’s cat (“that damn cat!!!!”) had come back, so he had to kick it out of the way again. Colin tried to turn on the siren in the Poo Mobile so that folks would hear them coming and when no noise came from his sound effects person, he announced that they should use the silent “fecal beam of light” instead. When they finally arrived at the site, “with our fecal beam shining”, Colin suggested that they use the “Poo Ambulator” to clean out the portapottys. Colin and Brad opened the first portapotty and found it occupied . . . as was the second one . . . but the third one was empty so they decided to start there.

Colin suddenly announced that he would lower Brad down into the toilet . . . and Brad, who was on the verge of losing it for this game, finally started to giggle. Things had gotten so silly and full of fart jokes that Brad was losing it. Helen and Gino had pretty much given up on listening to the clues provided by Colin and Brad, especially Gino, and were just giving fart sounds to practically everything prompted by the players that the scene just kind of fell apart. It was crazy with fart jokes. In fact, Colin just kept farting throughout the game . . . and Brad said that with “As much sound that was coming out of your ass that you could be a ventriloquist.” Colin, without missing a beat, said, “You wanna see my Mortimer Turd?” And Brad lost it, bent over in a fit of giggles . . . VERY cute. The game was such a shambles by then and with Brad and Colin both giggling, there wasn’t much more to do other than to end the game.


FREEZE TAG:
Kathy asked for position for Colin and Sean to be put into.
Game started with Colin on all fours (hands and knees position) and Sean as an Indian chief (cross legged, arms crossed on chest). Sean kept the Indian chief idea and asked Colin if he could hear the troops approaching. Colin put his ear to the ground . . .and got stuck like that for a while. I think he was hoping that someone would tag him out but folks tagged out Sean instead and kept Colin in that position for a bit. At one point, Julie tagged Colin out . . .and then I think Colin kept himself out of the game for the rest of the game. Chip jumped in and used Julie as a bobsled team member and ended up seated on the floor behind her. The audience loved this physical position and Julie played it up by leaning back into Chip’s chest and arms.

At another point in the game, Kathy ended up bent over at the waist with her hands touching her toes . . .and she got stuck like that for a while the others tagged in and played off of her. Chip, at one point, used her as an obstacle course for his game of putt putt, shooting a ball between her legs and into Brad’s position on the other side.

This game is not really one of my favorites and frankly this playing went on WAAAY too long. It was obvious the cast was stuck trying to find an out of the game (i.e. a big laugh) and they just kept going on and on . . . finally it ended.

SENTENCES:
Kathy and Julie played to the made up soap opera “As the Bank Breaks”. Kathy had called in Julie to teach her tricks on how to become the new mistress for the King. Julie was nervous but Kathy assured her that she would teach her well all the tricks she knew to keep the King happy. First sentence out of the bowl was, “Where is Drew Carey?” From that they decided that Drew Carey was the King and it was obvious that this was who Julie was to be the mistress to.

Can’t remember any other details . . .

GREATEST HITS:
Brad asked for a letter of the alphabet and “A” was chosen. Asked for a profession that began with the letter “A” and Acupuncturist was chosen. Colin and Kathy sold “Songs of the Acupuncturist” while Chip and Brad sang. (Looking over my notes, I have many more memories of the banter between Kathy and Colin and not much on the songs themselves. Sorry bout that.)

Kathy and Colin began the set and Kathy suddenly said, “Has anyone ever told you that you have lovely skin?” Colin replied, “Why, yes. Thank you. It must be the lights. (pause) I never sit in this seat. “ (He was in Ryan’s “traditional” Stage Right position while Kathy was in Colin’s traditional Stage Left seat. The audience laughed . . . and a few cheered. )

Colin continued saying that his favorite song “growing up in the 80s . . . .” Kathy stopped him. “1980s???” Colin said, “Well, actually – the 1880s was when I grew up” but there were no songs from then that he liked from that era. So a song he liked from the 1980s was the music by Flock of Seagulls and their Number One Hit – “Which Prick Is That?”

Laura and Linda immediately started up with the music but Chip and Brad hadn’t heard the title so there was a moment of, “What’s the title? What’s the title?” and Colin and Kathy repeated it a couple of times for them. Otherwise, I remember nothing of the song itself . . . not being a Flock of Seagulls fan. (In fact, I’m not sure if I have ever really heard of any of their songs. More into Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra myself . . . *G*)


Kathy said that “growing up in the ‘hood’ of Wisconsin . . .” and Colin interrupted, saying that he was “jiggy with dat” and crossed his arms across his chest ala a hiphop stance. Kathy just stared at him. Pause. Colin returned the stare and said that he was “Down with dat!” And Kathy continued to stare. Another long pause. Colin said that “in fact he was up AND down with dat” and jumped up from the stool on “up” and back down on “down”. Kathy continued to stare at him . . . and then continued on, turning back to the audience, saying that her favorite song growing up was the REM hit, “My Bodily Fluids Are Leaking Out.” Again . . . no notes on the song itself.

Final song . . . Colin said that he always enjoyed the Songs of the British Invasion of the 60s.

Colin: “British Invasion. Songs from Britain . . . ya know?”
Kathy: “You are from Canada, right?” (cheers from the audience)
Colin: “Yes . . . Canada. (pause) You know, we used to be owned by Britain . . . but the lease ran out so now we own ourselves.”

Colin’s favorite song of the British Invasion was “She Hit A Nerve”. The guys did a great song and it was this song that was obviously the best of the three . . . Brad and Chip really clicked on this song and the audience gave them a LOUD round of applause and cheers at the end.

MOUSETRAP:
Tables were brought out (from Stage Right as opposed Stage Left like last time they played Tahoe) and the cast worked on placing the traps while Julie and Kathy laid out the safety rope and while Chip introduced the game. Chip was especially excited to play the game because tonight would be the first time ever that Brad Sherwood has played the game, that he never played the game but the cast had ganged up on him and were making him play it tonight.

(Uhh . . . seems to me that Brad actually might have played it before. Vegas? The first year, maybe??? But otherwise, he has never played it, apparently.)

Chip had reason to be excited. For those who have never seen Mousetrap, please know that of all the cast members, Brad tends to be the most vicious in the placement of the traps. He always goes after the players’ toes and fingers and does so with enthusiasm. You could tell that the cast, Chip especially, was looking forward to exacting some revenge.

Sean did a mad dance across the stage showing the audience his naked feet, trying to get a round of impressed “ooooohhhs!” In fact, he did the prance across the stage twice. Sean brought out the goggles and Brad and Sean took place among the traps. Chip and Colin were standing by . . .already had traps in their hands and the game hadn’t even started. Brad looked a little nervous cuz the rest of the cast were shooting him teasing looks of “now, you’re gonna get it.” Very cute . . . you could tell everyone EXCEPT Brad was looking forward to the game.

Chip asked the audience for a physical activity . . . and Tai Bo was chosen for the scene.

The game started . . . and Sean dove right in, moving around, getting snapped. (Sean is a VERY enthusiastic player of Mousetrap.) I think Sean was playing a student who showed up and wanted to have lessons in Tai Bo from Brad.

Sean has no fear in this game and plays it full force. Brad? Ha! He stood completely still . . . and kept prompting Sean to do all the moving around! He just would NOT take a step. At one point, one of the guys, either Chip or Sean, said that Brad was “a chicken” for not moving around onstage. It was kind of a teasing taunt and Brad then screwed up the courage and started to move around. And the ATTACK BRAD CAMPAIGN began . . . everyone, especially Chip and Colin, went after Brad . . . and he got it good. Fingers, toes, ass . . . nothing was off limits. Sean kept prompting him to move around and Brad had to follow through. Brad, at one point, tried to sit down on the stage . . .and when he put his hand down, he put it directly into a trap and he HOWLED. We thought he was gonna roll around . . . but he got snapped good on the hand and I think he decided to stay put on the floor once he got there.

It was a great playing . . . but poor Brad, he definitely got the worst of the snaps. He did great once he finally got going in the game.

The show ended . . . BIG round of applause and cheers. Cast exited and Laura and Linda played exit music for a bit . . . and the curtain came down.
