Hey everyone I found out how Bill got started with the Muppets. Brian Henson meet Bill at a theme park. They would be joking around and stuff and Brian saw that he was very talented. Brian was about 17 and he meet Bill. They would clean things up and stuff. So Brian asked him to come help just for little things like dubbing voiecs and things. But Bill taught himself how to do a puppet and that's how he became a great Muppeteer today.
