Reader support matters more than ever
We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
Eric, who won the tickets to see Guy Fieri at the Paramount Wednesday night, posted this comment about the show — which we’ve pulled up so that everyone else knows what they missed:
“Thanks so much for the tickets to see the Culinary Road Show. The best word I can use to describe it is surreal–I have never seen anything like it. When Bourdain was in town, he mentioned that Fieri was on the road ‘doing this’ — meaning the lecture circuit. After seeing the show, I’m still not quite sure what I saw, but it was assuredly not the ‘this’ that Tony was referfing to. It was kind of like a staged frat party — that is, if CIA had fraternities. It was exactly as advertised, as unbelievable as that may sound. There was a DJ rocking the house, people jumping up and down screaming for swag and margartias, Fieri and his crew setting the stag on fire, a karaoke contest — pretty much exactly what I think the paying customer was looking for. The Bourdain thing was more my style, but this night was certainly an experience that I will never forget. Thanks again.”
No, Eric, thank you — for taking those off our hands!
