THE
FAMOUS
STAR-
STUDDED
PARTY
Saturday,
April
5,
2003(April
5,
2003)
Always
a
highlight
of
the
Sign
Biz
International
Conventions,
the
Party
during
each
year's
Reunion
event
must
outdo
prior
years'
galas.
This
year
was
no
exception,
and
more
than
120
special
guests
agreed,
it
was
a
night
to
remember...
The
"Before"
shot
of
the
venue
(pictured)
features
the
private
room
on
the
Monte
Carlo
Micro
Brewery.
The
location
framed
an
incredible
event
in
the
manner
befitting
a
star
occasion,
and
when
the
night
was
finished,
guests
could
walk
(hopefully)
to
their
respective
rooms,
in
preparation
for
the
following
day's
workshops
and
events!
We
can't
forget
to
mention
that
stars
on
hand
included
"George
Burns,"
"Lucille
Ball,"
"Marilyn
Monroe,"
a
huge
gourmet
feast,
and
the
ever-popular
open
bar,
courtesy
of
the
Sign
Biz
Gold
Sponsors,
N.
Glantz
&
Son,
and
Everbrite.
We've
caught
many
of
our
Network
Members
in
compromising
positions,
as
evidenced
below
;-)
"She
was
so
animated!
Her
mannerisms,
banter,
and
pitch
were
perfect.
I
can
see
why
she
was
a
favorite
on
Jay
Leno!"
"I
LOVE
Lucy!"
"She
was
incredible.
Just
incredible--
as
was
everything
at
the
Party.
This
event
was
just
first
class
all
the
way!"
Here,
Lucy
asks,
"Have
you
met
my
dear
friends,
the
Ross's?
We
go
way
back!"
Jack
asks,
"Where's
Ricky?"
Top
 "Marilyn
was
darling!
She
looked
the
part,
and
the
guys
ate
it
up!"
"Quite
an
incredible
event--
it
is
a
10++
and
I've
got
the
pictures
to
prove
it!"
Here,
Keith
Willis
has
met
his
match.
There's
no
escape
from
Marilyn,
or
the
camera,
Keith!
Keith
said,
"I'm
in
trouble
now...
Hey,
can
you
send
me
a
copy
of
the
picture?"
Top
Sue
Chesler
keeps
an
eye
on
her
hubby,
Bruce,
as
Marilyn
makes
herself
comfortable...
George
has
his
hand
wrapped
snugly
around
Fran
Potts'
backside,
and
she
is
being
demure
about
it.
"I
think
George
Burns
was
more
real
than
the
real
George
Burns.
I
saw
this
man
sitting
in
the
corner,
and
I
couldn't
stop
staring.
He
grinned
and
winked
at
me,
and
I
thought
George
was
really
here!"
"That
was
the
best
George
Burns
ever!
Where
did
you
find
him?"
Top
Elgin Deighton had
fun. 'Nuff said.
Top
 Hail,
hail the gang's all here!
Sign Biz president, Teresa M Young, enjoys her delightful old
friends, Marilyn, George, and Lucy. Later that evening, they
reminisced about old times and growing up together.
"The
hours
flew
--
I
could
have
enjoyed
this
party
all
night.
The
food
certainly
held
out,
and
I
think
I
had
two
dinners
before
I
left.
Great
time-
a
10+!"
"The
party
was
a
blast!
Every
year
I
anticipate
the
event,
and
it
always
exceeds
my
expectations.
I'll
see
you
next
year!!"
Top
 Greg
and
Ruth
Owen
are
the
sane
folks
on
the
right.
Some
of
our
Gold
Sponsors
from
N
Glantz
&
Son
are
hobnobbing
with
Lucy.
Later
they
were
jitterbugging,
and
after
that
they
were
heard
to
say,
"Help
me
down
off
this
table."
"What
a
wonderful
time
we
had.
The
celebrity
look-alikes
made
a
great
event
something
extra
special.
The
location
was
gorgeous,
and
the
endless
food
and
drink
rounded
out
a
great
night!"
Top
 Bill
Potts
and
Lucy
go
way,
way
back,
or
so
says
Lucy.
Lucy
says
Bill
is
her
kind
of
guy,
and
what
Ricky
doesn't
know
won't
hurt
him.
"Sign
Biz
and
the
Advisory
Board
really
outdid
themselves.
The
Reunion
really
is
the
#1
way
to
catch
up
on
everything--
technology,
people,
marketing,
installations,
everything.
I
really
liked
the
sponsor
vendors,
and
have
already
found
three
that
I
will
use
right
away,
the
day
I
get
back
to
the
business.
Thanks
a
million!"
Top
He's
the
real
deal!
Look
at
that
face--
devilish
fun
with
an
impish
grin.
Ya
gotta
love
it!
"George
Burns
just
blew
me
away!"
"He
makes
me
believe
in
reincarnation!"
Top
 Our
own
Paul
Strauch,
aka
Ricky
Ricardo,
had
Lucy
going.
She
wanted
to
be
sure
she
was
taking
care
of
everything,
and
refilled
his
drink
three
times
during
the
evening's
festivities.
Ricky
took
it
all
in
stride--
after
all,
he
is
a
celebrity
in
his
own
right,
and
has
spent
many
an
hour
signing
autographs,
but
that's
another
story!
"I'll
see
you
at
the
next
Reunion,
you
can
count
on
that!"
