The USA Banquet started as all others with Brian introducing Banquet host Charlie Ro.
The MLS Bunch has settled at their table…….
when we were then introduced to the program of the evening….. A Comedy Melodrama…. Joey and Maria’s Wedding….
The bride and her father entered after the attendants and all gathered at the “altar”.….
The evening went in to an uproar from there…… The comedy began as the “wedding party” began to interact with the crowd and with our MLS folks…. First the ladies of the party started to flirt with a number of the males in the audience. Jason had a big old kiss planted right on his forehead….
As did Brian, the USA train folks and many others.
The cast even got into helping with the handing out the door prizes….
The “Mother of the Groom” waylaid me with tempting chocolate fudge cake.....
During the reception, it was discovered that someone had stolen a $14,000 gift that was given to the bride and groom from the “Godfather”. The likely suspect was the only Irishman in the house….. Here the suspect is being apprehended, lead away, accused, stripped of his dignity and given to another.
The New JJ……….. Do we see a decided improvement??????
While the new JJ is on parade, the old JJ is lead back to the cold storage locker for some harsh treatment.
However, the new JJ comes to his rescue and tells the “Godfather” that the money was found on someone else and he indeed is innocent and takes him on a “victory dance”.
All ends well, JJ gets his hat back and the MLS gang recieves the Joey and Maria’s USA Banquet 2008 cars….
Thank you, Charlie and USA trains for a fabulous Big Train Show Banquet….
