Campout to Conan


Its 3 AM in Manhattan. My brother and I pull out our hotel towel, lay it out in front of NBC studios in Rockefeller Center, and cop a squat. Taxis zoom by and drunk partygoers stumble by... While they are still relishing in the fun times of the evening before, we have already begun our day.
We were only in NY for 3 days and we were determined to see Conan. Though my brother isn't as big of a fan as I, he much enjoys the red-headed late night guru. Arriving at 7:30 AM the day before, we were 75th in line! These Conan fans are hardcore. When we found out that the first person in line arrived shortly after 3, our mission became clear... If sleeping on the streets of NY was what we had to do to see him, we were prepared to rise to the occasion.

Needless to say, we were numbers one and two in line and scored seats to the Conan taping that afternoon. Though the guests weren't A-list exciting--Dax Shepard and some animal guy were on--there was a hilarious guy (who can be seen playing Preparation H Raymond on the show) prepping the audience and we were all laughs the entire show.
