John
Edwards |
|
We caught up with John Edwards (he swears that's his real name) in the lobby just before the December 11 show. He was so excited to be with us, he said he felt like a "high schooler on a first date." Apparently he has a bigger crush on his partner Vicki, though — she was stuck back home in Florida, and he was sweet enough to describe everything he was seeing to her on his cell phone.
Roxanne, Randi
& Michelle |
|
Randi Douglas (center) came all the way from her Portland, Oregon home to visit her daughter Roxanne Young (left) and Roxanne's friend Michelle Besent; the girls recently moved to St. Paul to play broomball. No, seriously: They moved here to play broomball. Welcome to our city, guys, and thanks for bringing mom over for the December 11 show.
Bill, Sheila &
Katie |
|
Katie Tuma liked her home in St. Paul so much that she convinced her brother, Bill Clements, to move here, too. It turned out perfectly — now these siblings work as a team to bring their mom, Sheila Murray (center), west from Chicago for our show. "Can you believe she just turned 70?" they asked us on December 11. No, guys, we can't. Happy birthday, Sheila.
