Below you will find my story and some pictures we took at the show we saw on Feburary 13th2003 and the latest show we saw on June 19th 2003 at Goodfellars in Brooklyn.

February 13th 2003 I had the opportunity, along with my family to see Mr Ganci (as Ralph) and Mr Leccese (As Ed) along with the rest of the cast at a FABULOUS dinner show at the Rex Manor in Brooklyn New York. The show is called Ralph's 40th Surprise Party. It's everything from Ed & Ralph doing the Huckelbuck to Carlos and the rest of the cast doing the mambo as they interact with the audience. We didn't stop laughing all night at all the BANGZOOMS, the Har Har Har De Har Hars and the rest of the Honeymooner lines and punch lines, along with other added humor.

As Ed introduces the "mystery guests" at Ralph's party, in a "This Is Your Life" theme, one by one they came out to greet the audience. The guests include Alice, Trixie, Carlos; the mambo dancer, Harvey; the bully, and Ralph's Mother-in-Law. Other special guests included "Chinese Guy" from Ralph's favorite Chinese restaurant, and the "Pin Girl" from Ralph & Ed's favorite bowling alley, which added a funny twist to the show.

Everyone from the cast is so nice (and sometimes naughty...LOL).After the first part of the show, they came around to all the tables and talked with you in 'character'. They took pictures with you if you asked. The Mother In Law even bopped my husband on the head! hehehe. (Thanks Mom) Harvey came over and tells my daughter, "What are you lookin' at?" and my brother in law tells him, "Hey! Getta load of fatso over there!" So much more went on, I can't even begin to explain it all.

After the show, my sister and I got the chance to talk with Mr. Ganci for a while. I have to say, he's just the sweetest guy in the world. Thanks John. If you get the chance to see this show, you won't be disappointed. I will post when the show will be in the Brooklyn area again.

Below are some pictures from the show.( I hope these picture are Ok with the cast some came a little blurry (sorry)and Alice,Chinese guy and Pin Girl didn't come out at all. I will catch you guys at the next show! I can't wait!)
