BBB Special: Schwarzenegger impersonation contest

Mon, 30 Apr 2007 21:29:20 GMT

Last week, I posted an entry on Boing Boing about my daughter’s school field trip to the California State Capitol, where she and her classmates met with Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The governor handed out small color photographs of himself to the students. When my daughter returned home, she showed me the photo and I noticed a sticker on the back with a warning not to use the photograph for any purpose besides personal enjoyment by the recipient.

I thought it would be fun to post a reproduction of the sticker on Boing Boing and invite readers to impersonate the governor reciting the warning. Within 24 hours, nearly 100 people called the Boing Boing hotline to give their impersonation. Every one of these people did a much better job of impersonating the governor than I could have done. In fact, they did a better job that the governor himself could have done.

It was hard to pick a winner, but I finally settled on Matt Plumb, who not only did a first-rate job of impersonating Governor Schwarzenegger, but also added some awesome ad-lib commentary. Congratulations, Matt!

Here’s Matt’s winning entry, followed by several other excellent entries to the competition. The impersonators are, in order of presentation: Alex Carey, Grey Hodge, Morris Pretz, Anonymous, Mark McQuillen, and Rich Sigfrit. Thanks very much for your excellent comtributions, everyone!

This has been a special edition of the Boing Boing Boing podcast for Monday, April 30, 2007. I’m Mark Frauenfelder. For more information about Boing Boing, visit www.boingboing.net
