Jerry Springer is alive and well

About a month ago we went to Thunder over Louisville it was a big air show and a HUGE fire works show after. We went up with our friends Jarom and Kristen and we had quite the day, complete with the air show, the fire works show and last but not least we attended a taping of the Jerry springer show... seriously...stay tuned



The air show was so loud but all the planes were really cool. All the latest Military planes and fighter jets were there as well as some old little planes that were fun to see. Luke's favorite was by far the helicopters I think it was because they were quiet, the fighter jets were soo loud. Can you see the plane that Luke is pointing out???


The coolest part of the day was the fireworks show. It's the largest annual fireworks show in the world and let me tell you it was insane seriously it was crazy. It was a full half hour of the most amazing fireworks I have ever seen. The air show was down by the Ohio river and they had a huge barge on the water that they shot the fireworks off from. I can't describe it but just imagine all the fireworks that you have ever seen in your life going off at the same second and lasting for a half an hour with LOUD music blaring in the background...Crazy but fun, poor Lily just burried her face in my shoulder.

So last but not least The Jerry Springer show. Let me just begin by saying that there were like a half a million people "down by the river" for this shin dig and I have to say that they were probably all Carnies. You know the fair workers who look a little sketchy? well this must have been a huge convention of them cause there were tons of the craziest people I have ever seen. Kristen and I had to fight through the crowds to find a bathroom for her prego body and seriously we were fighting through a mob of gross smelly weird people. We had to walk like a mile away to find something sanitary but anyway it was crowded to say the least.

So when it came time to go home we were stuck in traffic for like 2 hours. While we were parked in our mile of traffic we just sat there watching all the crazy people around us who were also stuck in traffic. Well there was this one car with a bunch of girls in it and there was a man wandering around between the cars well for some reason this offended the car of girls. This prompted one of the girls in the back seat to roll down her window and tell the man that he better git out of there way and she was serious. So he said something back and we watched this go on for a few minutes. Well things were getting more and more heated when I heard the girl yell that he "Better git out of my face" (and yes I said GIT) well the next thing I know she has jumped out of her car and is taking off after the guy (I tried to get my camera out to film all of this but for some reason nobody else in the van thought that was a good idea...wimps) anyway so this crazy chick jumps out to take after this guy and to my surprise she was in a clown car cause like 50 other "chicks" jumped out of the back seat with her. Honestly I can't even describe my complete state of shock and aww at that moment. You see these types of things on tv, you see The Jerry Springer show and you know that these are actual humans on his show but you don't really believe it. How can you believe that there are actually people who behave like that, WELL I am now a witness. I am a witness to the madness and it all happened in a Kentucky accent as well (just a little cherry on the top of the cake really) So this crowd of girls jump out of the car and they are all trying to stop this one "lead" girl from attacking the man in the street. I'm talking grabbing her around the waist as all 4 of her limbs are flailing around. She's cussing and yelling and he's cussing back, her friends are trying to get her back into the car as they cuss and yell at the guy and all the while here we are in our nice little family Mini van with the windows rolled down watching this all. We are all in total histarics but trying to be somewhat quiet so that the clown car doesn't take after us and also trying to grasp the fact that this is actually happening. Eventually the clowns all loaded back into their car and the random man walked away but I am forever changed. The people who are on those types of TV shows really do exist I have witnessed them, and all from the safety of my van with my 2 little kids sleeping soundly in their car seats in the back ahhh the memories.
