Peter asked trivia questions of the crowd in order to win one of those treasured items. He also explained how Wawa got involved in this project and suggestions were made for them to come back, Hawk Junction next, and the Mission in the third year\u2026<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u2026and then it was time!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The show began, and normally one would say that the \u201chouse\u201d was quiet \u2014 but not this time. Still Standing\/Jonny Harris and his crew chose a number of Wawaites. Some highlights\u2026<\/p>\n<p><em>The Goose, our angel with outstretched wings! \u2013 \u00a0\u201c#duckfacegoosehump!\u201d for $350,000 Jonny would bondo and spray paint her!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Brenda Grundt, journalist \u2013 Wawa\u2019s #1\/only 24 hour news team \u2013 and the team is Brenda!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Young\u2019s General Store \u2013 The MNR and the confiscation and eventual release of \u201cHenrietta, the transgendered Moose\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Spike Mills, drinking Chaga Tea and saying to Jonny, \u201cWould you like to see my Vagina?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>George Karasek \u201cBeaver Man\u201d \u2013 dynamite expert &amp; \u201cBeaver doesn\u2019t eat man!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hitchikers, of course, were targeted, and Petar Kusic \u201cMHS\u201d, his grads racing to the highway to be the first to get out of town! The Big Bird Inn as an important stop as one made the pilgrimage from the Lakeview to the Wawa Motor Inn on a Friday\/Saturday nite. It continued with the crowd laughing at every joke.<\/p>\n<p>It was a fine balance that they struck between the heartache of a dwindling town and the blows that have been struck and continue to fall. The joys and blessings, the northern lights from the shores of Wawa Lake, growing up without the rat race of cities; diving into Lake Superior, all that we treasure. As Pete said at the end, \u201cIt\u2019s a love letter to my town.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The crowd enjoyed the show\u2026 and everyone faded out of the bar still laughing.<\/p>\n<p>#WawaJoy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The long-awaited episode of Still Standing \u201cWawa\u201d aired last night.
