Bravo! Bravo.

Our clubhouse experience began with the nicest gatekeeper ever. The security guard in the building that houses the Bravo clubhouse was named Mike, and he was the nicest guy.

The next nicest person in the world was Anthony, a production assistant, who tended bar for the very small studio audience, there were about 20 of us. Anthony was so friendly and personable. He did a fabulous job of corralling us all into the studio and prompting us to clap when applause was required. He also gave us great swag as a parting gift.

We just happened to start a conversation with this guy who turned out to be the on air bartender for the night, a model promoting underwear, which he wore on air. His name was Austin, and he told us he was also an ex marine who did a tour in Iraq. He was a great person to talk to, and he showed us a picture of his beautiful daughter. Good luck to him in his career and with his family.

The moment of truth came, and the live show began on time. The guests were the ladies of Jersey Shore who were all beautiful, genuine, and great sports for Andy's game which tested their vocabulary skills. It was great laughs. While in the clubhouse, they still offered and served us drinks. It was cool.

The show wrapped and then they filmed the web show. We got a full hour of the festivities wrapping up with the ladies doing a shot ski with Andy. Good luck Jersey Shore ladies you have definitely left your mark on American TV.

We were asked to stay behind while everyone else exited with their giveaway so Andy could say hi and take pictures with us. It was great. He remembered us from the auction and gave us more swag to take home. Andy Cohen and his staff are what's all good about reality TV. They were all so gracious and down to earth i.e. 'real.'

Andy even signed a copy of his book, Most Talkative, for me personally. Thank you Andy Cohen for being the host with the most. You represent St. Louis well.
