My daughter's growing autograph collection

After reading up on some of the family entries I thought I'd share a recent experience. My daughter loves The Wiggles. For her birthday we bought tickets for the family to go see their show live. Her favorite one of the group is the yellow guy named Sam who recently replaced Greg when he got sick. In any case Sam came off the stage and walked through the crowd during the show for a few minutes. Not only did she get to give him a high five, she got her picture made with him and I got her ticket signed. Probaby not a big deal to some folks but I know she was so happy. For the record I would recommend the show.

This now goes with the following:

My kids LOVE that show as well. I get the early AM wakeup every morning so me and my two boys can watch it together! Can't say I have ever made a show, need to see if they are going to be coming to Charlotte.

I live in Charlotte as well. Looks like the closest we have is Greenville, SC on Nov. 7 at 1:30pm and 5:00pm.

I'm glad my kids are old enough that I have no idea what "The Wiggles" are.

They are coming to Greenville, SC on November 7th. Not sure how far of a drive that would be for you.

The show was great. It totally exceeded any expectations. The group has a ton of talent. Sam played the trumpet, juggled and played drums and guitar. In addition, Anthony and the Captain are accomplished acrobats. They joined the dance crew for gymnastics routines during the show. Definitely worth the trip if possible.

You can make it in less than two hours from Charlotte to Downtown Greenville (BiLo Center). Looks like they go on Pre-Sale (Sept 21).

Saw 'em open for Barney back in 2000. They absolutely put him to shame. Right away, I knew they were going to be huge.

Sorry to show my ignorance but what is an "ABO"?

My son loves the Wiggles. But I liked Greg better than Sam. What happened to him?

Nice autos by the way!

I'm glad my kids are too young to know what "The Wiggles" are.

1999 --- "...quack, quack, quack, quack,.........c**k-a-doodle-doo..."

I remember first hearing that song - that's when the "madness" started - and I began collecting cards again

Stone193 · September 1, 2009 2:13AM

Wow - I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

Is like Captain Kangaroo or something?

Abo is an ethnic slur that's used to refer to Aboriginal Australians. Classy as usual.
