[Sca-cooks] Alton Brown was in Ann Arbor

[johnna holloway]

Yes, he was here tonight. The last stop on his book tour.
Borders severely underestimated how many people would come.
He was talking at 7 PM. People came before 4 PM. I got there at 5:30 and
got one of the last chairs. Standing room thereafter. He'll be signing
for hours. It's somewhat odd to be sitting in a chair in a crowd in a
bookstore and wonder what the fire marshall would say.
They actually had to have people move to create an exit lane.

He is extremely funny. If you ever get the chance to go see the man in
person, do so. It's like stand-up comedy. Oh by the way, the brewing
show will be on this fall. Wonder if he's ever blown up a batch?
