It was All About Kristie day on Friday, April 17! And my segments reveal that the ENTIRE ROCHESTER AREA is rejoicing!
For the first segment, it was clear that the Big Birthday Energy had spilled out of the WARM 101.3 studios and out into the community… the Rochester Red Wings game on Saturday, Seneca Park Zoo’s Earth Day celebration, and even the RMSC’s Astronauts exhibit are all lining up to celebrate:
In the second segment, we answer the question: COINCIDENCE? YOU be the judge! These three events are so oddly specific that how could they be random, right? Pikachu & Pastries at the Strong Museum may SEEM to be celebrating Pokémon, but we really know who we’re celebrating, don’t we? I’ve also been reliably informed that the trout awaiting Saturday’s Powder Mills Park Fish Hatchery Annual Fish Derby are all aware that the rescheduling isn’t really due to the floods two weeks ago. And TYKEs Theatre’s closing weekend for A Bad Case of Stripes is all about being bright, bold, colorful, and above all, yourself… and we all know who that fits, don’t we!
