Randall's Going Away Party
After seven years of loyal and selfless service, our man Randall is moving on to greener pastures. Or, he is moving on to New Orleans anyway. He is one of the kindest and most thoughtful guys I have ever known and it has been a pleasure to work with him. Last night was his final shift at the Red Star. The usual cast of characters showed up to wish him well. Shots were taken, stories were swapped, fun was had by all. But, it is a testament to his uncanny ability to befriend everyone that several of the cast members from Twilight showed up to wish him well. These folks are shooting the newest installment of the ever popular vampire saga in Baton Rouge and we are honored that they have taken to Red Star as one of their regular haunts (no pun intended). But, I think we were all touched that they took the time out of their busy lives to show up and and say goodbye to Randall. Rami Malek, Omar Metwally, Billy Tangradi and the rest of the folks that I didn’t get to talk to, let me say that you are class acts and are welcome back anytime. And to Randall, best of luck in all your future endeavors. I am sure that your native goodness and joyful approach to life will take you far.
