Today was the first day of the NY State Fair. I spent the morning working, helping out with our morning show that broadcasts live from the stage at "Chevy Court". It's a fun show and it's nice to get out of the building to do something different for a change.
Today we had Chuck Wicks on the show. This is a photo of him signing autographs during a commercial break. I didn't really know who he was until last spring when he was on Dancing with the Stars. Apparently he's an "up and coming" country singer... and he was at the Fair to perform a concert today.
Chuck Wicks stuck around to be a judge in our Karaoke contest. Today's contestants sang a Kelly Clarkson song, hoping to win tickets to her show this evening.
I also caught a glimpse of the Governor today. He was on our Noon news at our broadcast center at the Fairgrounds. He had quite the entourage following him around.
And if seeing Chuck Wicks and the Governor wasn't enough excitement for one day, the NY State Maple Syrup Princess & Queen posed for a photo for me too. The fun never ends at the NY State Fair!
This is a crowd shot at our broadcast area at the Fair. People love to seeing a live show... and they also love to get "free" things...
Here's our broadcast area, with the jumbo-tron. The Governor is being interviewed by our Noon anchor. If you look close, you can see them over to the far left middle of the photo, their backs are to the crowd. Tomorrow is Day 2. I wonder what interesting things I'll see tomorrow!
