That's more like it. This thread better be lit up throughout OoB.

During Rachel and Dave at OoB last night:

Rachel was playing a teenager who just snuck in as her dad, Dave catches her.

Dave: I know that you drink, smoke, boys!
Rachel: How do you know I smoke boys?!

Eep!
The silver knives are flashing in the tired old cafe. A ghost climbs on the table in a bridal negligee. She says "My body is the life; my body is the way." I raise my arm against it all and I catch the bride's bouquet.

In the OOB Escorts show...

Andreas' charactered was being bullied by the rest of the players for the whole show, when, 3/4's of the way into the show, Andreas gets up and walks, painstakingly slowly, across the stage to exit. To our horror, he's obviously using crutches and has deformed legs. It was the most horrifying, surprising, (and therefore hilarious) 3 minutes of any improv show I've ever seen.

Marc, Alex, myself and Lindsey could not speak (due to breaking) for a long time.

I LOVED this moment.

Y'all help me remember the best lines from Lampe's roast. There were some serious zingers.

"Did the cute kid from Modern Family swallow an inner tube?" --Curtis, re. Chuy

"She's seen more black dick than a YMCA locker room in Detroit." --Mike D, re. Shana Merlin

"She just got a job teaching drama at a middle school, which is great, cause nobody knows middle-school drama like Audrey Sansom." --Shana

Roy: "My Rosie was a peach."
Kareem: "Now she's in someone else's garden."
Val: "They've probably made cobbler out of her by now."

Kaci: (playing a nigh-unintelligible character moves the bench Roy and Val are sitting on so it's facing more downstage) "Beddah sta pitcha!" ("Better stage picture!")

really, any of Kaci's lines as that character should be nominated, but that one took a second for my brain decode and then caused me to fall out of my seat laughing. :P

Yes! I had the same reaction and came here to post about that moment. So brilliant.

For me it was Roy saying "What vision of loveliness is this?" …about himself. The line itself wasn't the thing, the whole moment was just perfect. It brought the house down.

From the Roast:

Everything Matt Sadler said... It was like every improviser had brought a knife to a gunfight...
Chicken Fried Steak and all that...
