Rickles, Vintage Stamos Poster Save The Day!

Lastnight Bye Bye Birdie starring John Stamos and Gina Gershon had  a little snafu. An electronic scene change somehow got stuck and left audiences hanging for nearly 30 minutes wondering if the show would go on…

Bob Saget, Stamos Full House co-star came on stage and spoke into a mic attached to Stamos head and said, “I’m really glad your crotch is not miked.”

Legendary Comedian Extraordinaire Don Rickles shouted from the audience, “Are they gonna fix it or is this going to be a weekend!”

The show did began a little bit late, but not before comedian’s Rickles and Saget got the audience laughing. Gershon even brought out an old poster of Stamos onstage for all to see!
