Opening night

Opening night went pretty well. We had a good crowd and people enjoyed the show. We finished the stuff we didn't get to for the preview night. The night was pretty uneventful. We had a problem with the ball and a shelf Elgin made for a fog machine to blow smoke out of the faces nose. The ball started hitting the shelf and we had to remove it. There are a few dents in the ball that will have to be repainted.

As we were trying fixing a spring that keeps an emergency door at the end of Catacombs shut we ran into a few strange customers. The first was a lady that walked up to us and started trying to push by Mike's arm(the Mike that helps with electrical stuff) . She tried to get past us a couple times until we asked if we could help her. She didn't immediately respond and just kept trying to get by us through the door. Eventually she realized that she wasn't supposed to go through the door and we pointed her toward the Graveyard.

The second was a very drunk older guy. The guy came over to us and started asking what we were doing. We told him to keep walking through the show but he said something about it being fun watching everyone get scared. He kept walking around the display at the end of Catacombs while we were trying to get him to keep moving through the show. He ended up going into Cemetery but only after we kept telling him to move on.

Unfortunately its raining today so we arn't opening tonight. Hopefully there will be better weather next week
