Today is the Best Day of the Rest of Your Lifethe Lake County Visitors and Convention Bureau released its highly anticipated viral video, the Best Day of My Life in Lake County, Illinois:
It's no secret that your LakeCountyEye is a thespian (and has been since college), and was invited to make a cameo appearance in the video. Naturally there will be creative differences on the set of any multi-million dollar movie production, which explains why your LakeCountyEye's best scenes wound up on the cutting room floor. If the final cut of Best Day of My Life in Lake County, Illinois seems lacking in star-power, that's because your LakeCountyEye is harder to find than a Where's Waldo book in Fibber McGee's closet.

You know what they say: if life hands you lemons, don't look a gift horse in the mouth. So operatives were challenged to find your LakeCountyEye in the video. One clear-eyed Lakeview op tagged your LakeCountyEye right off the bat. He may have been helped by the fact that your LakeCountyEye appears in the video at two marks.
At 1:35 ...
And at 1:44 ...
This was not an easy scene to shoot. The camera had to be angled so that everyone at the bar could be plainly seen. And your LakeCountyEye had to stake out a mark so as not to be obscured by all those unpaid extras in the shot. Not to mention a mark that spotlighted your LakeCountyEye's best side (right profile).
After 53 takes, your LakeCountyEye is still hung over worse than an elephant's butt in a pair of size 11 jeans.
Hic.
