Kind of like Salemburg where Tarheel Challenge Academy is, but just way bigger. I guess I just miss the memories.

    I saw Carrot Top play at my college (Georgia Southern University) at around 1991-92. He was hilarious. After the show I hung out and met him. I had a very nice looking Ben & Jerry's "Cherry Garcia" pink and burgundy tie-dyed shirt on that he loved and complimented. He asked if he could get that shirt from me. He had sold out of his Carrot Top t-shirts (the one pictured in this video that burned and was framed), but he had the one he wore for the show. So I told him I'd take that one. It was too small for me because at that time he was very thin, but I wore it back to my dorm room anyway. Scott Thompson (his real name) was very nice and I helped him load his prop trunks into the back of his small Toyota pickup truck with the bed shell top covering the trunks in the back. He locked his act (those trunks) up with the tiny bed shell top key on his keyring.
    Over the years, I have no idea what happened to the t-shirt he gave me. I could never really wear it since he was so skinny at that time compared to me. Anyway, it is a great memory and I was always excited to see how successful he became after that with his incredible Vegas residency, since I had shared a fun moment with him at the beginning of his career, before the time he's describing in this video.🤙

    As soon as he said 1993, I flashed back to it! I live in Birmingham and was in high school at the time. It was my Junior year of high school, and there was a snowstorm... a BLIZZARD! I mean, there was ice, snow, power outages (our power didn't go out), frozen pipes, so we didn't have water. People out in the country were using the snow to make ice cream, and called it "snow cream". Some of them even used it to wash their hair! YES, they did! My best friend at the time and I were watching the news and the comedy club caught fire, and it was on the news that Carrot Top's props caught fire! MAN, I remember that!!! I even talk about that snow storm on my channel! Sadly, though, it slipped my mind to mention about the Comedy Club fire Carrot Top's props getting lost in that fire.

    When I was about 14 my parents took me to vegas. We went and saw the david coperfield magic show because my parents were huge fans. My dad shelled out a bit extra and got us a table on the landing to watch the performance. There was a moment of awkwardness where the staff was deciding how to approach us; Carrot Top was in the theater to watch and they wanted to move him to our table. Without question, Mr. Top came by the table, shook our hands and said hello to everyone and told the staff he was more than happy with a stadium seat. He explicitly said not to move us and took a seat behind us. I always thought that was very cool of him; we were just simple family people from kansas and he never showed a drop of hollywood stardom or diva about him. He was very pleasant to us and the staff which were obviously in a bind. Hats off to ya Carrot Top. I wish you the best still. It was great meeting you.
