I'm Inside of a Pizza Hut Commercial Again (Day 3385 - 3/2/19)

Previous Vlog (Day 3384) | Next Vlog (Day 3386)

The vlog starts out with Stephen telling Kepler to look behind him. Dan throws a cat toy which lands near Kepler and surprises him, while Sagan runs over to the toy. Stephen then tells Kepler "You have to be careful son. Where's your catcher's mitt? You aren't even ready for the game!" Dan says "It's okay! He's in right field". He then asks Dan whether he had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Original Movie on VHS. Dan says that he watched the 2nd movie the most. Stephen then asks him if there was a Pizza Hut Commercial at the beginning of it and Dan replies that he doesn't remember. He says he remembers that the Pizza Hut commercial had a song about being in right field which Stephen sings part of the lyrics to. He says that the commercial ends with the whole baseball team eating pizza from Pizza Hut. Stephen mentions that he used to play baseball and his position was in the outer fields.

Stephen then talks about how last week they didn't record anything for Stephen & Friends because so many people were sick. But, this week everyone was out of town or unavailable. For example, Jeff, Paul, Alex, Hayley, and Emmy were gone so they didn't have enough people to record. So, they decided not to record anything today either. Stephen says that they just decided to end Game Night early and just invited Dan and Lindsey to go have dinner at Waffle House. Lindsey declined saying that she was going to bed early due to feeling sick from allergies. Mallory says there is a lot of pollen going around now so she understands why Lindsey was feeling sick. Dan then says that Mal handed him a Amaou Strawberry Kit Kat. Stephen sarcastically says he wonders if Dan will like it since he likes Kit Kats especially "strawberry flavored ones". Dan says "Thanks! I hate it!" in reply to Stephen.

Stephen mentions that as soon as Dan came into their house, rain started pouring down outside. But, it stopped so they decided to leave to go to Waffle House. Stephen says he is glad that Waffle House exists, but he wishes there were other restaurants that were open late like Waffle House. They eat there and then return home. Stephen says eating at Waffle House was good and that is was surprisingly busy for a Saturday at midnight. He says that it's probably because it's around the time where people leave bars to try and get sober, there are teenagers hanging out late, elderly people whose favorite place is Waffle House, and lots of other kinds of people.

Stephen then says that he posted a picture on Twitter of their current Wii game collection and shows the tweet on screen. He says that they have about 220 Wii games which means that they are still missing about 1,000 Wii games. Stephen said that they finished the Game Cube game collection last year just in time before Extra Life. He said that they were able to raise about $65,000 for their local Children's Hospital. Stephen says that they will also be doing an Extra Life this year during November which will also be with Game Cube games. He hopes to get all the remaining Wii/Wii U games before Extra Life 2020. Stephen says about 90% of the remaining Wii games are not hard to find. He mentions that there is a weird appeal to him about the vast number of Wii games as a game collector since he continues to find games that he has never heard of before.

Stephen says he picks games up from Player's Choice and sometimes they will have games that they will trade in for other Wii games. He says that every time they go there and trade in games, there is always a Wii game there that he has never heard of. Stephen says he is looking forward to people voting on weird games like Heathcliff : the Fast and the Furriest or M&M's Kart Racing during Extra Life 2020.

Stephen then asks if anyone remembers the Pizza Hut commercial he was talking about earlier. He said he knows the song really well because he watched the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie repeatedly including the commercial at the beginning so he remembers the song. Stephen says that when someone says a word that triggers that memory it's like he is inside a Pizza Hut commercial again.
