HAHAHA!!! Last night, December 31, 2002, I, Jeff Blackman got selected to be an extra in the last show of the night for the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular!!! I was the guy who had to do the little prancing thing. What made it so great was that I was wearing a shirt and tie while I did this. I would post pics once I get them developed, but I am leaving to go back to boot camp tomorrow. All I know is that that was one of the most thrilling moments of my life, knowing it was the last show of the year.

Over the years my family and I have been picked to do various things. One year my mom was picked for 3 different things at MGM. She was with Lucy at Superstar Television, was picked with my sister to do the water thing on the backlot tour. She was also picked to be in the Indy stunt show.

I have been picked to be in the stooges at Superstar TV, I was the guy who had a pie thrown in his face. I have also been picked on the backlot tour.

I wanted to be a stunt double in Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular but they picked some guy in a really ugly shirt.:lol: I did get to ride with the monorail driver on two separate occasions during the same trip. I got cool pics of going through the Contemporary.

Not a show per se but my friends and I were picked off the street of MGM to be background characters while they were filming an episode of the New Mickey Mouse Club on the soundstage. They even took a polaroid picture of us on stage.

I need to find that picture b/c it may be worth something. In the picture is a very young Brittany Spears and I believe Christina Aguilera was somewhere there as well. Who knew?

Not me, but son #2 was chosen to participate in a balloon routine by a street performer in Epcot-France. I filmed it. At one point, he handed a balloon (that had not been tied off) to my son. It, of course, deflated in his hand. The performer got this mock look of surprise/anger, then looked right into my camera with a "Tsk tsk, did you see what your son just did?" look. My other sons and wife just laughed. At the end of the routine, the guy made a little balloon circle and put it on my son's nose.

Despite all of the attractions, pools, and character meals we experienced, this was everyone's highlight of the trip. Except for maybe son #1, who is fanatical about Space Mountain.

Times I was involved in The audience Participation...

I was sound effects and the voice of Martin Short in the MOnster sound Show (I was consistently late)

I got to die on stage at the Indy Stunt Spectacular, Yay!

I got dunked in water at the Backstage tour as the woeful ship captain. My shoes were soggy the rest of the day.

And I spent an evening singing They Might Be Giants songs at the Adventurer's club.
