Catch ‘The Rocker’ in L.A. last night?
Thursday, August 21st, 2008 | 33 commentsTallyHead Hayley, who was doing her part to help Free Jenna last night, received one of the best accidental ransom rewards to be had … watching ‘The Rocker’ with the cast and crew of The Office last night in Los Angeles!
Hayley reports that she was running a little bit late, and when she got to the movie theater at Universal Studios Citywalk, the movie had just started. The theater was about half-full, and when the lights came up at the end, she realized that most of the people seemed to know each other.
Then she realized that in the middle of the group were none other than Steve Carell, Rainn Wilson, and John Krasinski! Oscar Nuñez, Kate Flannery, Brian Baumgartner, Melora Hardin, Creed Bratton, and Amy Ryan were also in attendance, along with Greg Daniels and about twenty crew members!
Man, what a lucky girl.
Hayley mentions that the cast signed autographs and took photos with fans after the movie. Were any of you there as well?! Please tell!
