I Loved “Blue Man Group”; Chrissy, Not So Much
I’m involved with a group called iBridge that posts intellectual property on their web site for licensing purposes. UChicagoTech posts about a hundred technologies there, with plans to send more soon. The iBridge people co-sponsored an outing to “Blue Man Group” at Universal Studios Orlando during the AUTM annual meeting, and a few members of our staff got an invitation.
I brought Chrissy along with me on Friday night. Before the show, iBridge hosted a dinner at “Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville” to commemorate the company’s birthday. After we ate, Chrissy and I split off from the group to do a little shopping at Universal Studios CityWalk before heading over to Blue Man Group. They cram a lot of shops and restaurants in there!
Chrissy and I saw Blue Man Group once in Vegas about five years ago, and it was the same show this time, but I still thought it was great. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time. Chrissy doesn’t relate so much to this style of humor though, and that, coupled with her full day at the Magic Kingdom earlier with Cassie and Aiden, put her to sleep. It was way past her bedtime anyway.
Not sure how anyone could sleep at a Blue Man Group show. It was pretty rowdy in there. Unlike most theme parks in Orlando, Universal Studios serves alcohol. Lots of alcohol. Like, vendors in the crowd with platters full of Vodka shots. I think that most of the audience was pretty well lit by the time the show started. It made for a very interesting experience!
