Right on man! Hey if the paper has an online site you'll have to post a link to the article for us all to read!

Plus you know the Partyboy song has a real good rythem.



Tyler!

You got it man! It will be published the week before the fair parade which is gonna be in a week or 2. I will get the link from my wife and post it here later. I will not be making a new post however for the link, I will just edit this one and try to give the exact date it will be published. Either that or post the article itself if its posibble. The link might be better though. We'll see! This is definitely turning into quite a crazy thread. Cool yet funny at the same time. When I edit it, I will put (Edited) down below so you see it right away.

Edited:the site is www.monroenews.com and I will just post the date when i find out for sure. That way you get the email notification.

@Tyler

You are right, it does have a good beat! The song really is not that bad at all. I actually had to watch the movie again to get the full meaning of your previous mention and man that was hilarious. I dont think I could do that in public. :o :D I wouldnt want to scare the children! :D

Another Update: Sry was kind busy so I didnt get to tell all of you that I got a call yesterday to do a photo shoot for the article. It started out to be an article about just the Parade and I was told by the guy doing the article that his editor bumped it up and will now be a special. Not sure what that means but he said it may be on the front page. :cool: Talk about WOW. I sure hope the article is cool. I cant wait to read it myself. ;)

Edit: The photo shoot took about an hour and they took what seemed to be almost 100 pics. I hope they pick the one where I knocked my hat off with a toss over my shoulders. NOT! :p

The article posted yesterday Friday 7/31/04 in the paper. To view it, use the link in my previous post.

Nevermind that, here is the link. Talk about miss quotes. I did make a great pizza and it DID win. and it was not tossing at that time either. GEEZ. but its ok i guess. Gotta remember its the press. Never believe everything you read there. :p

LOL! Hey, Young at heart! Your only as old as you feel. Not the picture I would have picked but it works i guess. I should have shaved the mustache before the pic shoot. Oh well. hehehehe. :p :D

Thanks Warlock! Its only the beginning. When I make the US Pizza Team and get the front page story, I will be sure to mention you guys and this time I will make sure the Quotes are right. Gotta love that press! :D
I, however, will refer to you guys as friends in fileforums. Not sure how Empire would feel about too much press! :p Gotta be extremely careful where media is concerned these days! ;) Thanks for all of your support and I wont let ya's down. My promise to all!

Tyler!

Like I've never heard that before! :p One of the guys at work says I look like Luigi. :D

Man, that parade was a long one. Over 100 float entries. We walked/jogged about 1 1/2 miles. Got some standing novations though. :cool: All in all it was a huge success. They had it televised on the local cable network and I some how managed to be doing the (bicycle exercise/ spinning the dough between my legs trick :p ) when they caught it on TV. That was the highlight of all of the tricks and the one that got the most response from the crowd. It was kinda windy for some of the other high risk tricks but we improvised quite nicely. The kids loved it. Just wanted to let you all know how it went. Here is the follow up article from the parade, however it was very brief. I will keep you posted on more updates later! ;)

Update: Here is a must see television show called The World Pizza Challenge. Mark your calendars and check this out. It will give you an idea of what the US Pizza Team is all about and a look at what I am up against. Its pretty entertaining to watch as well. Here is the link for dates and times. It will be aired on the food network channel.
:cool:

Update:

OMG! I am freaking out. Check this out. Man, I cant believe this happened.

First of all, I was invited 2 wks ago to attend the Sofo Foods Expo in toledo.
They asked if I could come out and perform some dough tossing for the vendors and buyers at the pizza contest. So I accepted the invitation only to find out that Cat Price productions showed up to document the event for their upcoming movie. They shot 3 or 4 video tapes worth of footage of me tossing. Holy crap, it could be that I have stumbled into their movie by accident. I didnt even notice them at first cause they always cover the show on video. It was not out of the ordinary to have a camera on the sceen. Naturally, I over looked this as just that and tossed down for about 4 1/2 hours. It wasnt til after the 3rd tape change that they revealed who they were and what they were doing. After it was all over, they came up to me like they knew me and said, "Wow, we didnt even know you were gonna be here". Jokingly, I said, " That makes us even cause I didnt know you guys would be here either". It attracted some very big people in the pizza industry as well. I was approached by the editor of PMQ Magazine and was told that he was very impressed with some of my moves. I did the "Gemignani trick blindfolded 3 consecutive times in front of the camera.
I was told that if I can pull off that again in New York, I will probably make the team for sure. I am so excited to think I may have just helped make a film. I'm freaking out. This is alot more than I ever expected for sure. Just thought I would share this news with you guys. :cool:

Thats nutz man. Ill order the dvd for sure.
