Thursday night was a very special night for me.  One of the most memorable nights of my entire life.  I met Randy and Lahey.  For those of you who don't know what I am talking about, Randy and Mr. Lahey are characters from the Showcase hit mockumentary - the Trailer Park Boys.  On Thursday evening, Lahey and Randy were at Arizonas in Thorold, ON for a wonderful night of laughter and fun.  There were a bunch of other comics doing stand up that night, but only one was worth mentioning.  Bruce.  I don't know his last name, but he was local to Niagara and pretty damn funny. 

Back to TPB though, the boys were hilarious.  Lahey (John Dunsworth) and Randy (Pat Roach) are very in tune with the audience and they play right into it.  Audience participation was a big part of their show.  I laughed for the whole hour that they were on stage.  After the show we hung around for some autographs - which worked out perfect.  You see, my friends and I got to the line up late, so we were at the end.  Well once we finally got to the guys, they signed up the shirt I was wearing and a picture that we bought - then they hung out for a bit.  Well Lahey hung out for a bit, Randy disappeared into the back, probably looking for some cheeseburgers.  His gut was bigger than ever.  I have trouble imagining what it is like to have your gut be your claim de fame.

One great and memorable moment from the night was an audience contest to find the biggest guy and win a t-shirt.  A very large man went up last and when Randy wrapped the measuring tape around his gut, he shouted out "Frig Mr. Lahey, It took the whole tape!"  That was pretty funny.  They also did a segment called Buttman and Robin where they dressed up like super heros, probably a play at the Blandford Recreational Facility.  Thanks for making my night guys!
