Yeah, it's awesome. The original stoop from 1969 was there and in a few months they're moving to the next floor up. Definitely take a look at the Muppet Box (It's where the Muppets that aren't in use stay). It has photos of the cast and guest stars taped onto it and paintings of a bunch of the main Muppet characters from the 70's. It has Thig and Thog from the Great Santa Claus Switch on it, Kermit holding a puppet of Jim Henson and a bunch of Old characters on it. Do you know any of the Muppeteers already? Have a great time and bring a camera. If you do, don't take pictures of the Muppets that aren't in use (You'll get a "run-down" of rules when you get there).

Well, my dad is a bodyguard and one day over the summer he was doing security for a taping of The Jerry Lewis Telethon and he overheard a conversation saying, "We need you all out by 12:00, The Muppets are coming in tomorrow". My dad, being the aweswome guy that he is, asked if we could go and 2 days later he said, "Austin, we're goin' to a taping for Sesame Street!". That Friday, we went to a studio and they were taping for a special callled Sesame Kids Around The World, a special without all of the normal characters. That day I met Marty Robinson, Pam Arciero, Leslie Cararra and Kevin Clash and Marty invited me back and now I e-mail him and Wednesday we went back. I hope to work for them when I'm older (I'm 13 now). I plan to go to the University Of Connecticut (being that they have a puppetry course). I already started making my own puppets and developing voices for them and stories for them. I can't wait for college and Sesame Street!:frown: :stick_out_tongue: :grouchy:

You couldn't take pictures of the Muppets that weren't in use, aside from that you could go nuts! Oh yeah, I hugged Abbby Cadabby, she's so cute!
