Live! It's Saturday Night!


Hey y'all - little ol' Burlington, VT made Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update on Thursday 10/16. I was drifting off into a cold-medicine induced sleep when my mom called to tell me one of my photos from the Great Pumpkin Regatta was used in a Weekend Update clip with Seth Myers and Amy Poehler. AWESOME! I tuned into their webcast this morning and sure enough, there's the photo of grown men maneuvering Lake Champlain in a giant, hollowed out pumpkin. However, I've had some great fortune lately but this wasn't a part of it. Even though I shot the event, my fellow photographer Andy Duback was there shooting for AP and I have a feeling they used his photo off the wire service. Oh well, I'm still proud of my little city. Today SNL, tomorrow the world.
