list for going to see joel mchale of "the soup" at the mandalay bay in las vegas:
1. 15 passenger van CHECK.
2. crutches, handicapped parking pass, & scooter for our handi-"capable" friend CHECK.
3.XXXXL "i heart joel" undies CHECK.
4.reservation for dinner at maggiano's for 13 v.i.p. guests CHECK.
5.lots of energy and spazzy, age-inappropriate behavior for a very late night CHECK.
jody helping jared into the "special van".......fyi, yes, he wore the helmet the whole way down.
NOM NOM NOM---dinner at maggiano's at the fashion show mall. good stuff.
you know when they say a picture is worth a thousand words? i'll just let these next three pictures in the elevator tell the story:
after dinner we went to the show--seeing joel mchale was awesome, and i must say, he was really FUNNY!! i was worried that real-life stand-up joel wouldn't be able to live up to tv "the soup" host joel, but i was wrong. he had us laughing so hard at times that there were tears streaming down my face and i couldn't breathe.
we had our ginormous panties that russ threw down on the stage at the end, but joel didn't see them. steve went down to grab them and tried to give them to a stage hand to give to mr. mchale (cuz of course he'll want them) and then he did us one better:
can i just tell you how excited we were? i think you can see it in our faces--the thing that was so cool about joel (or "jojo" as i like to call him now) was that he was right there, touching, hugging, not afraid to get right next to us or anyone he was taking photos with. i think there was a special love in his heart for us as he did say while signing our ginormous pair of panties that it was the strangest thing he'd ever autographed. he was totally down to earth and normal and unaffected and it was awesome!
okay, can you tell we were just a teensy-tinsy bit star struck? he was signing the big-girl underwear on kristin's back.
i think travis was as star-struck as we ladies were--this is one of the many photos i have with his head in the corner.....
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!! he signed "ryan" for his bff seacrest right in a strategic area--we thought it was pretty much an act of genius.

Shut the hell up! I've never been so jealous of anyone in my whole life. AWESOME. I love the panties. I heart Joel to death.
Looks like you guys had so much fun! We too are lovers of Joel...and are so happy to hear he's funny in real life on his own. Him and Ryan bfff?! even better.
Who farted? Melinda, Megan or Kristin? I bet it was Kristin.
You guys are the best. Still stocking you.
Kenny
LUCKY!
Giddy school girls were what you all were, plain and simple...so good to laugh and have fun, let it all hang out. Good for you, looks fun!
You are so funny!
I am ashamed to admit that I don't know who he is and I have never even heard of his show. I guess I need to start watching more TV.
Looks like so much fun! I love that you go do such fun stuff with your buds!
you guys are a riot!
ha.la.RIOUS! you guys have way too much fun for one group...I need to join the posse :)
I am so jealous, I could cry right now. He was in Ogden about 8-9 months ago, and I didn't know! I heard about it a few days later, from some coworkers, and I wanted to punch them in the face. They too got pictures.
They told me some of the jokes he told (maybe not safe for work), and I was laughing so hard. I can only imagine hearing them in person.
P.S. If you don't read The Soup blog, you must start NOW.
That.is.awesome.
LOVE IT! I am so jillious I didn't get to go!
1. Love Joel!
2. Love, love the huge freakin panties!
3. Love, love, love that you are complete and utter party animal!
WOW my cup of jealousy way runneth over! first the panties and then you got to meet joel! i don't even know what to say!
I "heart" Joel, and the giant underwear is the best.
I'm jealous of your life.
I am so jealous let me go sulk in the corner because I coldn't go. I love the panties very nice.

Gol....
I'm so jealous!!
Looks like so much fun
I love all your escapades and living vicariously through you. The panties, a riot!!!
Minda I am so sorry to tell you that he had me to his left and had his arm around me and he touched my shoulder a few times. We are BFF's now for sure.
What a great night, Jared was sure that he was going to be a D-bag but he was sooooo nice. Loved it!
I'm so jealous! JMcH is great! Big panties = Big love for Joel. Nice touch.
And Maggiano's truly is the greatest! Clearly, I'm far out of the loop though because I thought the one in Boston was the only one out there ... turns out they're all over. Their house salad is something I crave every pregnancy.
you girls know how to have a good time. LOVE the panties. So funny!
I don't know what was more fun... the van ride down? dinnner with the dog look alike and getting sweated on by the scary druggy busboy? the naughty 17 year old opener? Joel McHale? Or the drive home until 2:30 a.m.- It was such a fun time... we need to talk about Denver? Caylor really missed out and I think he was sad. Thanks for the hook-up- I am glad there was a last minute cancelation and I was there and ready to party. SO Much Fun! It makes me miss living in St. George! Peace out!
OOOOOHHHHHH! GET OUT~!!! I am so jealous!! Love the panties but I love that he signed RYAN, too. roflerfol, Sooo jealous!
The guy in the helmet looks like a riot! Glad you had a great time.
Oh and guess what I just found out... we got tickets to Billy Idol at The Joint in Vegas, Sept. 12th. Fun huh!
So where's the blog giveaway for THOSE babies???
Ok so you gals live the best lives Ever! Now those are some undies.
I kinda wanna be you right now...
OMGOSH!!!!!!
YOU were touching him. HIM. In the flesh. Fo reals.
OH MAN.
*faints*
Did he ask for me?
I bet he smells great.
That is a good shlebing! I la-la-love The Soup... Who gets to keep the panties?
It sounds like you had a hilarious, but fantastic time. Nice panties!
I am so way behind, but I just came across your blog today. You are the first person I have found that loves Joel McHale as much as me! Me and the hubby have a standing date for The Soup every Friday night. We have tickets to see him here on Jan 16th, WOOHOO! and I am glad to hear his live show is so good.
Fun blog! I will have to bookmark you!
