Default Re: American Idol - What a waste it has become

Quote:
Before the "American Idol" finale aired, Lee DeWyze was declared by some as the best thing ever for Mount Prospect.

Yet, his success also was expensive for Mount Prospect. It cost the village about $40,000 to throw its native son a parade May 14 and a viewing party a week-and-a-half later.

Village Manager Mike Janonis said it wasn't something officials could plan ahead for. "We didn't plan for it, we didn't ask for it and we couldn't stop it," he said
God, has it been 15 minutes yet?
