Big Guy & The Cheesehead

Big Guy & The Cheesehead

Big Guy Hats superfan Jeff Kahlow is one fine artist of foam & glue, and a great friend. He was kind enough to bring many of his works to our The Premier event with Chester Marcol to show to the public. This wasn’t the first time we did this, the previous being at Thelma Art Center in Fond du Lac a couple of years back, but as always, it was a blast to get the band back together (sort of). There…

GREEN & GOLD DAY

GREEN & GOLD DAY

A bit late in sharing this, but always great to get with friends & fans in Green Bay, especially when the Packers and Art are involved. We had a great Green & Gold Day last fall at The Premier with the great Chester Marcol signing, and a fantastic display of Jeff Kahlow’s foam creations (aka, Frozen Tundra Man, see following post). Also special thanks to @scraycheese @Wenzelfarms and…

Adventures In Wisco Land

Adventures In Wisco Land

While playing around with a new camera, I got some fantastically fun shots at my favorite hotel in Cheeseheadlandia, the Appleton Comfort Suites by Wisco Hotels. They’ve always been a terrific ally in my travels. Love this place as I’ve done so many fun shows in the Fox Valley, and have made many great friends here. Of course it doesn’t hurt that it’s a quick jaunt of about half an hour to the…

While watching The Profit with Marcus Lemonis about a cheese shop in New York City, my good friend Tyson, owner of Mars Cheese Castle in Kenosha, came on screen, much to my delight.  Turns out that Marcus also has deep Wisconsin roots as he graduated from Marquette University.  Small world, and a wonderful one when things like that come together.

I had the distinct luxury of hanging with my friend and Green Bay hall-of-fame kicker Chester Marcol for his 70th birthday.  We had two in events around that time and on the day of if Fond du Lac, he wanted to see Jeff Kahlow’s private zoo.  Knowing it was Chester’s birthday, Jeff bought him a cake and had some fun with it.

After that, we headed to our show in Plymouth at Generations.  Unbeknown to us, they too had a birthday surprise for Chester with another cake to boot.  It was great to see such a friendly outpouring towards Chester for his 70th birthday, and I was proud to be a part of it.

So sad at the passing of the legendary Bart Starr. He was inspiring to me when I met him as a kid (as I express enthusiastically in the film), and I was happy to have met him again while filming the documentary. I even had the pleasure of exchanging emails with him after that. These photos are but a few of the great memories I have of one of the most honorable and outstanding persons I have ever had the honor to know, if only ever so briefly.

This (and several more to come) are from events that we did some time back and are finally getting around to putting the photos up for archival purposes.  This was a fun one with Chester.  He has since said that it was one of his favorite events with me as the audience was incredibly enthusiastic and well informed about Packers history.  I’ll let the photos do the talking, though I do love the Bob’s Big Boy statue as it reminds me of my days in Los Angeles.

Pictures from our show at Hedberg Public Library in Janesville.  It was a heck of a fun time with my friend Steve “The Owner” Tate showing up, as well is many terrific Janesvillians (not a word, I know, but a fun one).

Chester was there, a football showed up, maybe it was, perhaps not, but it was a fun day all the same in Shawano.

Singer-Musician and Wisconsin native from Barron County (where I grew up) may have the big stage on The Voice, but the locals in the area sure know how to support one of their own.  So much love all over the county, and rightfully so.  

Good Luck, Chris on #TeamBlake

Great to see LeRoy Butler, the founder of the Lambeau Leap, at the Barron High School for a homecoming pep rally and inspirational talk.  I just happened to be in the area when he was there, so I stopped in and gave him a copy of the Cheeseheads DVD.  In return, he gave me a big hug.  What a great guy and a terrific moment.
