ETA: the car story is the best

That's really sweet!! The car story is pretty neat.

Mr McFeeley used to be at a local amusement part regularly, and there is a Mr Rodgers NEighborhood ride there. It was awesome growing up. I had Mr McF's autograph when I was little and thought I was so cool.

Handyman Negri (Joe Negri) also plays concerts in town at local little bars occasionally.

Thats pretty cool. I do love Mr. Rogers.

I love these stories! I loved Mr. Rogers as a kid.

True story, when I was around 4, he did an episode where he talked about divorce. In the show, the parents took the kids to a pizza restaurant and told them. For six months, I would freak out whenever my parents mentioned pizza! It took them forever to figure it out

[WOT?*]

I grew up with him and I'm OLD. I Loved Mr. Rogers as a kid and as an adult. These are really sweet, cute stories.

We had a series record of Mr. Rogers shows. I would turn it on while I was cleaning. When A was 3 she came to us and asked about "dievor." It took us forever to figure it out. Once she said it was on Mr. Rogers, I skimmed the titles. It was that episode.

What a wonderful man.

I love Mr. Rogers. I wish more people were nice like him. The world would be a better place.
