Oh what a night… with Joan Rivers! \u00a0Yes, you read right, my 2 sons, my favorite Aunt, & 2 dear friends & I saw the REAL Joan Rivers last night (February 5th) in Springfield, MO. \u00a0She did her stand-up comedy show at the Juanita K. Hammons Hall at MSU to a very responsive crowd. \u00a0She looked gorgeous, her timing was perfect, her material was new\/current\/hysterical, & a great time was had by all. \u00a0Joan is going to be 77 on June 8th, but you would never guess it. \u00a0She’s a whirlwind! \u00a0Thursday she was in Wichita, last night Springfield, & tonight she’s in Tulsa. \u00a0I had sent her a note about 3 weeks ago to tell I was looking forward to seeing her show. \u00a0I had a photo of she & I that was taken one year ago when I met her at the Mall of America that I wanted her to sign. \u00a0I call the Juanita K. Hammons Hall to see if Joan was going to have a ‘meet & greet’ either before or after her performance. \u00a0They said no, but they would be glad to take my photo back stage to her when I arrived. \u00a0A very nice offer which some\/most places don’t even think of offering. \u00a0When we got there I found my contact person who had made this kind gesture. \u00a0She said, “I have great news for you, you & your party are on their list to see Joan after the show!” \u00a0Of course I was thrilled & told her thank you for helping me & she said, “No, Joan’s people came to me & said to make sure that Terry Wayne Sanders & his guests are invited.” \u00a0So, long story short, we loved every minute of the show, we did in fact go back with a small group of people, & Joan was her usual, gracious self. \u00a0She remembered me, thanked me for my “Lovely note”, her people said they enjoyed me in the new documentary about Joan called, ‘Joan Rivers – A Piece Of Work’, & Joan gladly signed the photo of she & I together!<\/p>\n

\"Joan

Joan signed, "Dear Terry - Great to see you again - Joan Rivers"<\/p><\/div>\n

The J.K.H. Hall had a photographer there & they took a photo I will post as soon as I get it. \u00a0a BIG “Thank you!” to everyone involved & especially Joan for being the truly amazing & inspiring person that she is. \u00a0Her people are wonderful as well. \u00a0Oh what a night!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
