You bought a rock?
Can you explain?
What else did they sell?
Oh, God, all of those animals absolutely MELTED MY HEART. I just went around randomly petting dogs. I don't get to be around animals much anymore, so I was like a kid in a candy store.

It's a rock that has snoopy painted on it and it says "Broadway barks"
They were selling t-shirts, and autographed items by Bernadette. There was also a silent auction which consisted of gift bags mostly. The Jersey Boys auctioned off 2 sets of tickets for this sundays show. the first set went for $300, and the other set went for $350 I think..

That's a bargain for Jersey Boys tickets considering the price they go for on ebay.

I tried getting Jersey Boys tickets for mid-August and none were to be found- all 4 days I was looking for.
Sorry, done threadjacking.
I just posted a few photos of the days events on my blog.

I bought a Annie Get Your Gun Playbill at a bargain $20, and the BP Carnigie Hall concert signed CD for another $20. 15mins left on the silent auction and no bids on MTM package which included a signed copy of MTM's favorite episode Chuckles the Clown, I bid $150, and dont you know by 5PM it had been bid up to $250. Bummer I lost it, I should have bid $300 and skipped 3 Broadway Shows this year.

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing!
By the way, Sutton's fiancee's name is Christian Borle
awesome pictures!!!
Thanks. My blog didn't allow me to put more pictures, like Lucie Arnaz, Bebe Neurerth, Tarzan cast, Producers, Wicked etc. It was a fun day, not too crowded. Barrett Foa was in the audience, but no one bothered him.
We stopped over at Broadway Barks after dinner. It was probably around 6:30ish. Bernadette Peters was doing the announcing. I just saw Mary Tyler Moore sitting in the chair. When I was there Lucie Arnez was announcing and the three Jersey Boys came up with dogs. John Lloyd Youngwas not there. They did not perform. They introduce the animals. My attention was not with the stars but with the animals especially the cats. They had a lot of kittens. My friend fell in love with Reena the pit bull. She was very friendly and affectionate. She kept calling her hubby telling him she wanted to take her home. He was saying "no,leave Broadway Barks and go get a drink". It was hysterical. She was going on vacation the next day but took the phone number of the ASPCA where the dog is. I stayed mostly by the animals and made donations. Did anyone see Smokey the cat that was burned. Very sad.
Did anybody see me? The annoying guy with The Wedding Singer Shirt handing out The Wedding Singer Flyers? lol
How about Mary Tyler Moore's Stalker? That guy was Creepy/Annoying.

I was there..... sitting in my usual spot at the front of the Shubert. I had on white cargo capris and a bright ass fuscia shirt.

Who was MTM's Stalker. I only heard MTM mention that she would like to stalk the guy from Animal Planet if he lived in NYC.

I just looked at the pictures. Am I the only one who doesn't know who half those people are?
Oh CJR I missed you. I am a tall voluptuous blonde in my twilight years, ha ha. meaning not 30,. 4o's. It was so crowded I did not that far into the mob. We only went up to Smokey, the burned cat, which was the halfway point. That is where my friend saw the dog. You could not move there. Next time, give me a holler. Send me an email and I will send a pic.
Here's another bunch of pics! What a fabulous day!
