My Favorite Michael Pizza Moments

After nearly every show we do Michael Moments. The moments usually focus around improv moments that were too fun not to mention, but sometimes we celebrate team victories such as; packing the Playground during Michael @ Midnight, getting our first iO run, or an idol of ours commenting on how great our posters are. We celebrate these because we know that if we really boil it down we're just a couple of guys on an improv team who take it really seriously. Improvisers are usually on a bunch of teams, they perform here and there and do this and that. I think we try to rebel against that. We're almost to protective of our improv team. We talk endlessly about sit-ins and what is the best move to make for the team. We really treat it like a business and that I love.

Its impossible to pick which is the best MP moment because they all hold a special place in my heart. Here's a good one that hasn't been mentioned. There's only been one or two shows where all four of us were there and we had a sit-in. We had Erica Elam sit in. Boy oh boy was that a fun show. Erica is great! Erica, Eric, Brett and I were all girls talking about getting a man to take care of us and finally we had gotten Ben to go to Erica's house with her. Eric, Brett and I went home with them and we hung out in the kitchen. Here's how the scene went. Ben and Erica are in the front room and we're listening to them behind the kitchen door. Suddenly we get distracted by all the food in the kitchen and just start eating various food items. Every so often she'd check back on us and we'd have nothing to comment about what she had in her pantry. It was loads of fun. In that same show we did another scene where Kass went to jail for something ridiculous. I popped in as a hardened criminal and then Eric popped in as an executioner and revealed I was sitting in an electric chair. He then electrocuted me. It all happened in the blink of an eye and was outstanding!



That was a fun show and I really thank Erica endlessly for playing with us.
