Mesa Verde Elementary School Pizza Party Coverage on KOLD / FOX 11 News segment.
I had the 9 PM news on FOX 11 on this evening. Which I guess is actually some version of KOLD 13 news. They ran a story about students at Mesa Verde Elementary School getting a pizza party today as a reward for some sort of recycling accomplishment.
I am being serious when I tell you this segment was awesome. These kids were hilariously excited and just amped up for their pizza. Mugging for the camera and hamming it up. No shade to kids who get nervous when on TV, like I would have as a child. But these kids were not nervous. They were in throws of full-on pizza induced mania!
They were so charismatic and just all around awesome. My personal favorite was this little girl who confidently and enthusiastically shouted "We are having pizza, AT the pizza PARTY, AT the MESA VERDE SCHOOL!!!!!" into the reporter's mic while holding slices of pizza high up in the air, triumphantly, with each hand.
I don't know how to take stuff from a TV news show and put it on Youtube. And I am not even sure it's good for kids to become famous by going viral. But if this segment were online I have no doubt it would quickly go viral. It was amazing. God bless those kids. I am going to watch KOLD news at 10 tonight in case they re-run it.
