They recruited extras to fill the stadium at various local companies and the one I worked at was one of them. I went back a second night since they said they would need people again. Since it had rained the first night when they were getting football game shots on the field, they had to wet some of us in the stands down with spray bottles to match on the second night! I was sitting close to some of the actors who had other parts in the movie, so I got wet down for the close ups on them in case I was in the shot. I think we did the ending of the game where everybody poured out onto the field after the team wins, that night, too. One of the nights, Robin Williams came over and told some jokes to us before the filming commenced. I have some pics of Kurt and Robin somewhere in my "archives" from that. It was fun even if it didn't turn out to be a hit, well-known movie! One of these days I need to run that part of the movie in slow mo to see if I can spot myself. I've never done that.

As awe-inspiring as everything else is, that soulful performance accompanied just by an accoustic guitar brought tears to my eyes.

I have spotted him at numerous DLR performances including the RustEze band from the day Cars Land opened and he's my favorite Mad Hatter at the Mad T Party! His Italian rendition of Silent Night captured my heart and also gave me goosebumps.
