“Weird Al” Yankovic was doing an unplugged concert at my school. Now, I am persistently late for things and this was no exception. Right when his show was about to start, I finally made it to the auditorium where I hastily ran over to the front benches where there still were empty seats. Of course I tried my best to be discreet, not wanting to keep the others waiting, although I didn’t realize at first I had sat down pretty much RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. Only a few feet apart. Al’s face beamed up with an expression of sarcastic surprise, looking straight into my eyes. I was worried I had offended him. Then he, while keeping his expression, read out loud whatever text was on my graphic t-shirt that day. Which just completely freaked me out since my entire shirt was hidden underneath a sweater.
I saw Weird Al when I was sitting in an alleyway or something and I asked to take a selfie with him and he accepted. I attempted to do exactly that, but each time I tried snapping the photo, something bad happened (blurry picture, I fell down while taking it, etc) and he eventually got so pissed that he was about to walk off but I asked for one more chance and finally managed to take a decent picture, but he looked really mad and now I’m worried that Weird Al is angry at me for no reason (in real life).
I was outside of my 5th grade school’s auditorium/performing arts centre, and there was this weird platform that replaced the stairs. My ex-friend and I walked onto it. We stood there for a second before Weird Al Yankovic’s demented doppelgänger pulled up in this huge monster truck and picked us up. We had no trouble getting in.
today on tumblr: random account pops up impersonating weird al yankovic and is so successful in tricking hundreds of users that the real weird al, who had previously never used tumblr, was forced to create an account and personally address the impersonator after a submitted post to them was taken for sarcasm. I know this shit seems too wild to be true so I’ve included sources to the actual accounts in this post so you know this actually fucking happened.
