My father lives near the Richmond Airport and on the day of the concert I was taking him home. As we drove from the West End to the East End of town, there were police cruisers everywhere. When we got off the Interstate and closer to the airport, police were putting up yellow tape and barriers. I was stopped at a light and asked the Police Officer what was going on. Here is what he said:

"Every police officer within a 50 mile radius is here this afternnon in preparation for a very special dignitary that is coming to down"

I said , " Is it Elliot Yamin?"

He couldn't say, and the light was changing and I went onward.

Later I found out that President Bush was in town! Yamin, coming to town was in all the papers and the visit from President Bush was later on the back page of the Richmond Times Dispatch.

My point is this: In Richmond, VA........ :cheerleader1:

ELLIOTT RULES...THE CONCERT WAS TERRIFIC!

:rotfl:


Well, Elliott SHOULD RULE!! Love that...bet the police officer was caught off guard too. Wonder if he radio'd in & asked if the security was for Elliott or Bush? :lol:

that is too funny!

Love it!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Remember what Elliott said right before his homecoming video last year. A couple of President's had come through but had not gotten the type of reception he did. It continues. :rocker:

Love your comment.

:rotfl:

I bet it was bantered about the Cop Shop.

:rotfl:

Maybe Bush was trying to "Find a Way" to E's concert.

I got a huge kick out of that story..Thank you for sharing it!

Reminds me of the headline : "Who does the Queen think she is, Elliott Yamin?"
