Alton Spawn and School Daze

TucsonFoodie · 06-10-2009, 11:02 PM

So, do we know for certain that the neice is Alton's Spawn (aka Zoey, lol?) She IS quite the actress (I have an 8 year old - I know how they are!)

Sorry for jumping in without introduction, but yes, I am a big Alton fan (enough that I chose a bf who looks like him, though I tell him its the opposite.) MiseenPlace - you can have Alton, I have the doppleganger!

I've always wanted to know what his experience on the set of School Daze was like. I mean, a white man working in a Spike Lee joint? WOW - must've been interesting! School Daze was one of my faves in college.

Yes it was Zoey, she is as talented as her daddy.

It was a very cute episode.

If you ever get to one of his events, you should ask. I'm sure he would tell you about it.

If he ever comes to AZ or So. Cal - I'm there! Nobody but Rachael Ray ever seems to come to Tucson, sigh.

Spawn makes him sound like a fish.

I know the problem. We rarely score big names to visit us in West Virginia. All of the times I've meet AB have been road trips

We get quite a few, but I've never gone to see any of them. FN is big on sending a lot of their 'traveling' shows out here DD&D, I'll Work for Food, How'd That Get on My Plate, Road Tested with the Neeleys, RR was here a couple of years ago for her $40.00 a Day show and visited a winery.

Anthony Bourdain is out here quite often (I know he isn't with FN any longer, but did a segment for his other show)

It's quite the place for fresh produce, fish, and products that are original.

Spoiled? You bet! And, I love it!

Remember the episode about Pantry Raid (honey??) he showed a -then-toddling Zoey and they put "Alton Spawn" on the screen. I always thought that was funny. To be more appropriate, they should have called her an "Alton cub" since he is a Leo, lol.
